\printdraft{\textcolor{gray}\small DRAFT} % In order to use this
% command, you have to enable "drafts"
% in the option of the gsudiss
% class, otherwise it does

% "DRAFT" in gray color in the header of your
% dissertation. You can go wild
% here if you want. Just make sure
% you disable the draft option
% before final printing.
\author(YOUR NAME) % Name required.
\title(THE TITLE) % Title of dissertation Required.
\titlesize(11)(11) % This is for changing
% the default font size
% for your title. The
% first argument is the
% font size, the second
% is the line spacing for
% long tiles that wrap to
% more than one line.
% Default is equivalent
% to the \LARGE command,
% which is roughly (22)(22).
% \committee: The first parenthesis must contain your supervisor name.
% You can have two supervisors (for strange reasons), in which case, the
% second supervisor goes into the square brackets, next to the
% first. If you have one like me, then leave the second entry blank, like below. The
% rest of the parentheses contains the rest of your committee members. You
% can have up to six entries, NOT including your supervisor(s). My
% school requires five or four. I have five (5) members
% below. Finally, the last square brackets contains the
% chairman of your department. In my case, the chairman is
% also a committee member, so he is listed twice. Note that
% there is no need to put the "Dr." title in front of any of the names.

% Do \graduationmonth{January}
% for example. Defaults to "August"
