All departments require that papers for courses and seminars, as well as thesis proposals, be typewritten, double spaced, on good quality white paper.
Theses are to be printed with laser or laser-quality printers.
TST supports the policy of inclusive language and urges the use of inclusive language in all academic assignments. The student is responsible for accuracy in typography, spelling, punctuation, word divisions, grammar, and for proper style. If a reader judges a thesis to be unsatisfactory in any of these respects, it will be returned to the student for revision, resulting in the postponement of the evaluation of the thesis. The Introduction should also include a description of the project as a whole. Most importantly, the Introduction must contain a thesis statement, setting out in the briefest possible form, the exact proposition or hypothesis that the thesis will demonstrate.
