%***************************************************************
%-->
%--> UTHESIS is a LaTeX document class that facilitates uniform 
%--> dissertations and theses at the University of Toledo. I 
%--> created this package so that UT graduate students do not 
%--> spend time thinking about mundane issues such as formatting 
%--> requirements. Instead, a student can concentrate all their 
%--> effort on the content of their dissertation/thesis --- and 
%--> UTHESIS will quickly transform their draft document into 
%--> one that satisfies all style and formatting requirements 
%--> established by the Graduate Faculty. 
%--> 
%--> Portions of this file were drawn from material included in 
%--> standard LaTeX distributions and from LaTeX code posted    
%--> anonymously on the web.  Authors of such code I can        
%--> identify include: Stephen Page for "doublespace.sty", David
%--> M. Jones for "hangcaption.sty", Leslie Lamport and David   
%--> Carlisle for "ifthen.sty", and David Carlisle for          
%--> "indentfirst.sty".  I am sincerely grateful to these known  
%--> and unknown authors because the material they made        
%--> available will help current and future UT graduate students
%--> prepare their dissertations and theses.                    
%-->                             
%-->                                       --- Mike Dowd

%***********************************************************
%*********
%*********  The following sets the appropriate value of

%*********  value is determined by the font point size
%*********  chosen by the user of UThesis (i.e., 10pt, 11pt,
%*********  or 12pt). As Goossens, Mittelbach, and Samarin
%*********  (1993, p. 470) indicates, this adjustment is
%*********  necessary because the simple "\setstretch{2}"
%*********  command adds approximately 20% additional space
%*********  per line.
