-%%%%%%%%% Graduate Student Sample CV Template %%%%%%%%%

-% I tried to write a generic resume template for graduate students. Naturally,
-% I tried to make it as generic as possible since I cannot possibly come up with every section and subsection
-% imaginable. Regardless, this should serve as a helpful template for those graduate students writing an
-% academic CV. The goal is to create a flexible template that can be customized based on each specific
-% individual's needs. I have uploaded a generic CV as a demonstration of how this document class works.
+%I tried to write a generic resume template for graduate students. Naturally, I tried to make it as flexible as %possible since I cannot possibly come up with every section and subsection imaginable. Regardless, this should %serve as a helpful template for those graduate students writing an academic CV. I have uploaded a generic CV %as a demonstration of how this document class works.
+%The purpose of this README file is to explain how this document class was constructed so that other authors %can use this as a template to design their own document classes.
+
+% The example.tex provides an example of how this document class can be operationalized.
+
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\NeedsTeXFormat{LaTeX2e}
\ProvidesClass{gradstudentresume}
\LoadClassWithOptions{article}
\RequirePackage{anysize}
+\RequirePackage{hyperref}
% it goes left, right, top, bottom
\marginsize{0.75in}{0.75in}{0in}{1in}
-\pagestyle{plain} % because I think pages on CVs should be numbered
+\pagestyle{plain}
+%I have named this class gradstudentresume. Please save it to the same folder that your .tex file is located in %and then compile. The margins have been set as 0.75 inches for the left margin, 0.75 inches for the right %margin, 0 inches for the top margin, and 1 inch for the bottom margin.
-\newcommand{\sectionrule}{\noindent\hfil\rule{\textwidth}{.6pt}\hfil
-\vspace{2mm}}
+Since I think pages on CVs should be numbered, I used the plain page style.
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+%Next, I defined my own skips. Although LaTeX has smallskip, medskip, and large skip, it is important to have %fine control over your own output.
+\newcommand{\smallspace}{
+\vspace{1mm}
-%% I know latex has smallskip, medskip etc. but I think it is important to have fine control over your output and define your own skips
-\newcommand{\smallspace}{\vspace{1mm}}
-\newcommand{\medspace}{\vspace{3mm}}
-\newcommand{\largespace}{\vspace{5mm}}
+}
-\newcommand{\degree}[4]{\noindent{\textbf{{#1}}} \hfill{#2}\\ \textit{#3} \hfill{#4}}
-\newcommand{\sectionheading}[1]{\noindent{\large{\sc{#1}}} \\ \sectionrule}
-\newcommand{\subsectionheading}[1]{\noindent {\sc{#1}} \vspace{1mm}}
-\newcommand{\subsubsectionheading}[3]{\noindent\textbf{#1} \hfill{#2}\\ \textit{#3}}
+\newcommand{\medspace}{
+\vspace{3mm}
+
+}
+
+
+\newcommand{\largespace}{
+\vspace{5mm}
+
+}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+%Further, I defined a new environment called info so that users can write out their contact information at the %beginning of their CVs.
+
+\newenvironment{info}[4]
+{\begin{center}
+\Large{\sc{#1}} \\ \normalsize \textit{Address}: {#2} \\ \textit{Telephone}: {#3} \\ \textit{Email}: {#4}
+\end{center}}
+{\largespace
+
+}
+% The parameters are name, address, telephone number, and email.
+
+%I also defined a new environment "wrapped" since I think the gap between bullet points in the itemize %environment is too large.
\newenvironment{wrapped}
{ \begin{itemize}
\setlength{\itemsep}{0pt}}
{ \end{itemize}}
-\newcommand{\contact}[5] {{\Large{\sc{#1}}} \\ \normalsize {\textit{Address}: {#2} \\ \textit{Telephone}: {#3} \\ \textit{Email}: {#4} \\ \textit{Website}: {#5}}}
-% The parameters are name, address, telephone number, email, and website.
+I also defined a new section rule command.
+\newcommand{\sectionrule}{\noindent\hfil\rule{\textwidth}{.6pt}\hfil
+\vspace{2mm}
+
+}
+
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+%Below, I have defined new commands so that users can avoid the cumbersome practice of formatting each line. %Commands have the advantage that they are essentially functions that apply the same formatting in multiple %locations.
+\newcommand{\undergrad}[5]{\noindent{\textbf{{#1}}} \hfill{#2}\\ \textit{#3} \hfill{#4} \\ Graduation Honors: {#5}}
+\newcommand{\grad}[6]{\noindent{\textbf{{#1}}} \hfill{#2}\\ \textit{#3} \hfill{#4} \\ Thesis: {#5} \\ Advisor: {#6}}
+
+\newcommand{\sectionheading}[1]{\noindent{\large{\sc{#1}}} \\ \sectionrule}
+\newcommand{\subsectionheading}[1]{\noindent {\sc{#1}}
+\smallspace
-\newenvironment{info}
-{\begin{center}}
-{\end{center}
-\vspace{5mm}}
+}
\newcommand{\reference}[7]{\textbf{#1} \\ {#2} \hfill{Telephone: {#3}} \\ {#4} \hfill{Email: {#5}} \\ {#6} \\ {#7}}
% The parameters are name, title, telephone number, department, email, school, and address line 2.
+\newcommand{\paper}[7] {{#1} ({#2}). {#3}. \textit{#4, #5} ({#6}), {#7}.}
+% 1 is authors, 2 is year, 3 is title, 4 is journal, 5 is volume, 6 is number, 7 is pages. This is useful since you don't need to type in \textit{} etc. repeatedly when typing up your resume. Grad students with many publications will especially appreciate this feature.
+
+\newcommand{\myname}{\textbf{Kumar, A.}}
+% so that you don't have to keep typing in \textbf{your name} for every paper you cite.
+
+\newcommand{\presentation}[4]{{#1} \hfill{#2} \\ \textit{#3} \hfill{#4}}
+% 1 is the section of the conference, 2 is the date, 3 is the conference name or school name 4 is the location
+
+
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+%Below are two numbered environments. Again, defining new environments helps with formatting since users do not %need to keep repeatedly formatting items in the same manner. Notice that commands defined previously can be %used as arguments to in a new environment.
+
+\newenvironment{pres}[1]
+{
+\textbf{#1} % name of the presentation
+\begin{wrapped}}
+{% use the presentation command as the argument
+\end{wrapped}
+\smallspace
+
+}
+
+
+\newenvironment{desc}[3]
+{
+\noindent\textbf{#1} \hfill{#2}\\ \textit{#3}
+\begin{wrapped}}
+{
+\end{wrapped}
+\medspace
