Appendices
birth name
• Do not set off a birth name in parentheses or quotation marks: Jane Doe Smith. In publications with alumni as the primary audience, use a female graduate’s birth name followed by her married name: Andy Steiner Manning ’89.
Board of Trustees
• Capitalize when it refers to Macalester’s governing body: “the Board of Trustees.” But: “the board.” Trustee, however, is lowercase: “trustee chair Timothy Hart-Andersen.” (See also titles, personal.)
brackets
• Use square brackets, not parentheses, to add words to quoted material (see Chicago 6.104).
