我的一个朋友给了我一份他今年春天提交的论文中使用的课程文件。这是他写的课程文件；不是大学提供的。
在春季和夏季之间，大学对论文的要求进行了些许修改，现在委员会的签名应该放在标题页上，而之前它们是分开的两页。我尝试编辑文件，.cls以便将两页合并为一页，但当我编译它时，我得到的是之前得到的两页。我想知道如何修复文件，.cls以便两页之间没有分页符。
这是.cls我更改之前的文件内容：

我删除了该\newenvironment{committee}部分并\def{titlepage}用以下内容替换了该部分：

此前，主要.tex文件包含以下内容：
\halftitlepage
\titlepage
\include{abstract}
\begin{committee}
\committeemember{Dr. First Member}
\committeemember{Dr. Second Member}
\end{committee}
\duplicationrelease
但我注释掉了从\begin{committee}到 的4 行\end{committee}。我看不出.cls文件中的什么导致了“阿肯色大学”和“本论文已获批准...”之间的分页符。（我知道在类文件中添加委员会成员的姓名并不理想，但我不会将其提供给其他人使用，我只需要完成它以便提交。）我如何消除该分页符？
答案1
我终于搞明白了。删除\vspace*{1in}标题页定义顶部附近的 就解决了这个问题。我猜在我这样做之前，一页上没有足够的空间容纳所有内容。
