\section{List of Figures}
\noindent The list of figures is required if you have any photos, illustrations, or charts in your manuscript. Each figure in the list must have a number, a caption, and the page number on which it appears. You can auto-generate your list of figures by 1) using the Insert Caption button on the Reference ribbon in Word to create all your figure captions in the manuscript and 2) then using the Insert Table of Figures button to insert the list onto this page. You can then update the table as needed.

\medskip
\noindent
If you have no photos, illustrations, or charts in your manuscript, please delete this page.
Tables get their own list; see next page if you have tables in your manuscript.

\newpage
\section{List of Tables}
\doublespaced
\noindent The list of tables is required if you present any numerical or textual information as tables in your manuscript, even if there is only one table. Each table in the list must have a number, a caption, and the page number on which it appears.

\medskip
\noindent If you didn’t have a list of figures, you can auto-generate the list of tables using the list of figures instructions. However, if you have both figures and tables, the list of tables will have to be typed manually. You may need to make an appointment with a UA Little Rock thesis editor to get help with this part of the formatting if you don’t know how to create a manual list of tables.

 \medskip
 \noindent Delete this page if not applicable to your manuscript.

\newpage 
\section{List of Symbols, Abbreviations, and Nomenclature}
\doublespaced
\noindent
This list is required if you include any symbols, abbreviations, or specialized vocabulary terms (nomenclature) in your manuscript that are not explained in the text of your chapters. Include each symbol, abbreviation, or vocabulary terms along with a short definition of each. This page must be double spaced.

 \medskip
\noindent
Delete this page if not applicable to your manuscript.
