Please note that you \emph{must} have an abstract even if you also have a public abstract. \subsection{Landscape figures and tables} If you have large figures and tables that must be rotated, you should use the |[lscape]| class option. This enables a pagestyle |lscape| and places the page numbers correctly on the long edge of the page. The option loads the \pkg{pdflscape} package which provides a |landscape| environment to place the landscape figure in. Before the landscape environment, you need to issue a |\clearpage| command and change the pagestyle to |lscape|, and afterwards, change it back to |plain|.

To avoid this, I would recommend saving an archived version of the \pkg{msu-thesis.cls} file in the same folder as your thesis file. You only need to do this once you have completely finished your thesis however; there's no need to do it during the writing process. \subsection{Major Version history} -Previous versions of \pkg{msu-thesis} (versions 1.0--1.4b) were created for non-electronic submission and should not be used. Versions 1.5--1.6 (the first electronic submission versions) contained a |\makeabstract| command and a separate |msuabstract| environment. These have been removed as of version 1.7. Users who are upgrading from earlier versions to version 1.7 do not need to change these commands however but their use will trigger a warning.) Version 2.0 implemented landscape pages; version 2.1 added support for \pkg{hyperref}. Versions 2.2--2.5 mainly accommodated to the ever changing whims of the MSU Graduate School. Version 2.6 fixed some appendix bugs introduced by the previous whim accommodation. Version 2.7 fixed various small spacing issues, fixed a bug which prevented a new chapter page to be a landscape page, added support for the \pkg{apacite} package, and updated degree options. Version 2.8 fixed some spacing and capitalization issues and added support for the public abstract. Version 2.9 removed subscript/superscript size restrictions, added font size options and made small spacing changes to appease the thesis office. Version 3.0 added full support for per-chapter bibliographies and appendices, and automated bibliography spacing for |natbib| and |biblatex| produced bibliographies. Version 3.1 added support for an |{algorithm}| environment and a list of algorithms to combat incompatibilities with the \pkg{algorithm} and \pkg{algorithm2e} packages. Version 3.2 fixed some lingering problems with per-chapter appendices. Version 3.3 added code to accommodate the insane inconsistencies in formatting requirements that the thesis office requires, including a new contents option which hopefully should never be used, and fixed some numbering problems with per-chapter appendices. Version 3.4 added a starred option to the |\makecopyrightpage| command after complaints about placement.
