6.1 Current version

The latest copy of msu-thesis will always be available on CTAN and on GitHub. If you use MiKTeX, or a current year TeX Live then their respective package managers can update or install the latest version. If you are using Overleaf, you may not have the most recent version, since Overleaf is usually about one year behind in its TeX distribution. If you are using a Linux-based distribution, or your TeXLive distribution is not the most recent year, you may need to install the latest copy in your local texmf directory or simply in the same directory as your main source file. If you want others to use the class, please point them to CTAN, or tell them to use an up-to-date TeX distribution so that they can use an up-to-date version with all accompanying documentation and examples rather than passing along your copy. Please report any problems you have with the class to me amunn@msu.edu, as this will aid in making things easier for those who follow you. You may also report actual bugs or class-caused formatting issues using GitHub: github.com/amunn/msu-thesis, but in my experience, most issues are more easily dealt with using email. The Graduate School rarely announces changes it makes to the formatting requirements, and it is often very inconsistent in what kinds of things it chooses to get annoyed about, so your problem reports are extremely helpful for keeping the class in compliance with the latest standards.
