Sample data needed for vita #33

Open machawk1 opened 5 years ago

machawk1 commented 5 years ago

The vita.tex simply contains the command \vita{\todo}. This is not helpful in creating what one is required for the contents of the dissertation vita, aside from auto-filling in the contact info. Providing some sample data in the vita.tex would help inform usage of this feature. It is not clear.

@ibnesayeed Do you have an example for this? Must everything be within \vita{}?

@ibnesayeed Do you have an example for this?

It is really a one-pages where people can put stuff the way they like. The only example I have would be from my Masters thesis, but I didn't want to pollute this repo with my personal information. We can perhaps change it to make it the vita of John Doe instead.

Must everything be within \vita{}?

Yes, that's how \vita is defined currently in this class (which I don't like).

Alright, for lack of an alternative, here is an example with extremely verbose formatting that I added for fine tuning of display. This is adapted from my own vita page for lack of an example. There are probably better or more succinct ways to do this but needing everything to be in \vita{} makes it syntactically difficult.
