The caltech_thesis class.

NOTE: This isn't done yet! There are bugs to be worked out before it is useful!

caltech_thesis is a modern, updated document class for writing Caltech PhD theses in LaTeX. It is based on the memoir class, and makes several choices regarding formatting that I prefer.

I'm hoping that by having it publicly accessible on Github, it will be useful to as many people as possible, and through contributions of others, pull requests, and perhaps forks, may remain up-to-date and coherent, instead of fracturing into numerous outdated versions with some changes strewn across the internet. To that end, if you make improvements, please submit them as pull requests; I'll try to either keep this updated or pass on maintainership to someone else.

Note that my actual thesis did not use exactly this class: the fonts were slightly different, and different weights were used for various elements.

You can also check out upcoming and on-demand webinars

I downloaded the Caltech thesis template from Overleaf but when I try to compile it gives me an error. How can I fix this?

The first thing to try is updating your LaTeX packages, in case you're running older versions. We've tested the template on MikTeX 2.9, TeX Live 2015 and newer on our local computers, and the compilation went through without errors for both.

If that doesn't resolve the problem, please let us know your LaTeX distribution's versions and send us your .log file via our contact form and we'll take a look for you.

The Unique Burial of a Child of Early Scythian Time at the Cemetery of Saryg-Bulun (Tuva)

<< Previous page

Pages:  379-406

In 1988, the Tuvan Archaeological Expedition (led by M. E. Kilunovskaya and V. A. Semenov) discovered a unique burial of the early Iron Age at Saryg-Bulun in Central Tuva. There are two burial mounds of the Aldy-Bel culture dated by 7th century BC. Within the barrows, which adjoined one another, forming a figure-of-eight, there were discovered 7 burials, from which a representative collection of artifacts was recovered. Burial 5 was the most unique, it was found in a coffin made of a larch trunk, with a tightly closed lid. Due to the preservative properties of larch and lack of air access, the coffin contained a well-preserved mummy of a child with an accompanying set of grave goods. The interred individual retained the skin on his face and had a leather headdress painted with red pigment and a coat, sewn from jerboa fur. The coat was belted with a leather belt with bronze ornaments and buckles. Besides that, a leather quiver with arrows with the shafts decorated with painted ornaments, fully preserved battle pick and a bow were buried in the coffin. Unexpectedly, the full-genomic analysis, showed that the individual was female. This fact opens a new aspect in the study of the social history of the Scythian society and perhaps brings us back to the myth of the Amazons, discussed by Herodotus. Of course, this discovery is unique in its preservation for the Scythian culture of Tuva and requires careful study and conservation.

Keywords: Tuva, Early Iron Age, early Scythian period, Aldy-Bel culture, barrow, burial in the coffin, mummy, full genome sequencing, aDNA

WGS 84 coordinate reference system is the latest revision of the World Geodetic System, which is used in mapping and navigation, including GPS satellite navigation system (the Global Positioning System).

Geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) define a position on the Earth’s surface. Coordinates are angular units. The canonical form of latitude and longitude representation uses degrees (°), minutes (′), and seconds (″). GPS systems widely use coordinates in degrees and decimal minutes, or in decimal degrees.

Latitude varies from −90° to 90°. The latitude of the Equator is 0°; the latitude of the South Pole is −90°; the latitude of the North Pole is 90°. Positive latitude values correspond to the geographic locations north of the Equator (abbrev. N). Negative latitude values correspond to the geographic locations south of the Equator (abbrev. S).

Longitude is counted from the prime meridian ( IERS Reference Meridian for WGS 84) and varies from −180° to 180°. Positive longitude values correspond to the geographic locations east of the prime meridian (abbrev. E). Negative longitude values correspond to the geographic locations west of the prime meridian (abbrev. W).

UTM or Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system divides the Earth’s surface into 60 longitudinal zones. The coordinates of a location within each zone are defined as a planar coordinate pair related to the intersection of the equator and the zone’s central meridian, and measured in meters.

Elevation above sea level is a measure of a geographic location’s height. We are using the global digital elevation model GTOPO30 .

Stanford becomes latest elite school to require SAT or ACT for admission, saying they predict academic performance

Stanford University will reinstate the SAT or ACT as a requirement for undergraduate admission, joining a rush by other selective schools to bring back standardized testing after a pause during the pandemic. 

The new policy will cover students applying in the fall of next year for admission to the class of 2030, Stanford said in a  statement  Friday, citing an interval review that found the tests are “an important predictor of academic performance.” Testing will remain optional for students applying this year.

Stanford is joining a  return  to standardized testing at schools including Harvard University, Yale University and the California Institute of Technology amid a shifting admissions landscape for top students. Many of the schools have argued that the tests can provide them with greater context about whether less-privileged applicants are likely to succeed in college. 

“The renewed testing requirement will allow Stanford to consider the fullest array of information in support of each student’s application,” the Palo Alto, California-based school said. 

Stanford said it’s delaying the testing requirement until the fall of 2025 to give prospective applicants time to prepare. 

Testing opponents have long argued that the requirement favors wealthier students who can afford tutoring and preparation courses. Prestigious colleges started to bypass testing when it became impractical at the height of the pandemic as test centers closed. 

Since then, however, some of the most elite US schools have grown concerned that not using tests made it harder to identify talented students from less privileged backgrounds. Colleges have also been rethinking their application processes after the Supreme Court ruled last year that schools can’t consider race in admissions.

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology restored test requirements two years ago. 

Stanford is among the most selective US colleges, admitting 3.9% of the applicants for the class of 2027, according to university data. Its acceptance rate was lower than all Ivy League schools except Harvard, which had a 3.4% rate for the same cohort.
