This section discusses requirements for the general layout of your manuscript, the order of front and back

matter, and page numbering. See the Sample Pages located below for additional information. Guidelines

are similar for both theses and dissertations; instructions specific to theses or dissertations will be marked

accordingly.

The Graduate School recommends that you use your word processor's global page settings or create a

template adhering to the following guidelines:

Margins: i inch on top, bottom and right sides and 1 1 /2 inches on the left, except on the title page, first

page of each chapter, and other pages indicated below which should have a 2 inch margin at the

top,

Line spacing: Double-spaced; long quotations and footnotes may be single-spaced. Spacing on

preliminary pages should follow the examples in the Sample Pages below.

Fonts: Text font and text size should be chosen for ease in reading. Font sizes 10 through 12 are

recommended. Use consistent font styles for section headings. Ariel font is not recommended.

Footnotes or Endnotes: Follow the accepted practice of your discipline or the chosen style manual. The

format selected should be consistent throughout the manuscript.

Spell check: Change the word processor spelling setting to include words in ALL CAPS.

Pagination:

Preliminary pages: Small Roman numerals (ii, iii, iv, etc.) are placed at the bottom center of the page,

starting with the Approval Page as ii. The Title Page is counted, but is not numbered.

Manuscript proper: Arabic numbers (i, 2, 3, etc.) are placed at the bottom center of the page on all

Research Areas:

The recent decision of the United States Supreme Court invalidating segregation in

the public schools poses a number of new problems in the area usually called race

relations. Perhaps the most fruitful discussion of some of these problems can best result

from a consideration of what the legal mandate against segregation means when it is

related to the announced objectives of certain elements of Negro leadership—complete

integration in American society. The can best be approached by presenting an analysis of

certain meaningful information which all of us have a chance to share in common.

Race Relations As A Concept - What it Means

The term race relations have long been used to describe the activities resulting from

the social adjustments growing out of the contacts taking place between different racial

groups. It is no longer broad enough to provide an adequate background, for or give

complete coverage to our discussion. However, the fact that it is too narrow to provide all

of the materials we need does not keep it from providing a basis for our initial discussion-

-a point of departure.

most simply, a race is a group of people the members of which have common hereditary

characteristics. These characteristics make it possible for the observer to distinguish

between them and members of other groups. There are many different classification of

race. Some of the most important of these or at least the most widely used of these are:

Caucasoid, Mongoloid, Negro; Black, White, Yellow and Red.

These classifications are not so definite and authentic that they make it a fool-proof

task separating race groups. In fact, no matter what classifications you use, the

differences between members of any racial group will be greater than the recognized

differences between any two racial groups. Some of the things used to classify racial

groups are sldn color, texture of hair, shape of head, relationship of extremities, hairiness

of body, and others too numerous to mention.
