%  Made the following changes to the default headings.
%
%  1)  The headings are no longer upper case.
%  2)  Removed the \MakeUppercase command from the 'tableofcontents',
%      'listoffigures', and 'listoftables' commands and from the
%      'thebibliography', and 'theindex' environments.
%  3)  Due to Graduate Studies requirements the frontmatter and the
%      mainmatter have different headings.  Specifically, the frontmatter
%      has the page numbers at the bottom center of the page, and the
%      mainmatter has the page numbers at the top right corner of the page.
