What were you trying to do?
Format the title page of my thesis.
What's wrong:
``(c) Raul J. Acevedo, MCMXCII. All rights reserved.'' should read
``(c) Raul J. Acevedo, MCMXCII. All rights reserved.''
I.e. line 311 of mitthesis.sty reads:
\uppercase\expandafter{\romannumeral\@degreeyear}}
it should read
\uppercase\expandafter{\romannumeral\@degreeyear\@}}
Because \romannumeral produces a year in all caps, TeX has to be told
that the period following it ends a sentence with `\@'.
Yes, this is a big nit-pick. But after four years of hell and
$100,000, you're damn right I'm being picky. :)
