% Note: each section of this table (Education, Awards, Publications etc.) is
% stored in a two-column table. The left-hand column is narrow (1 inch) and is
% meant to store dates. The right-hand column is wide (5.2 inches) and stores
% the main text. Sections in which each entry might have multiple lines
% (e.g., Education) are stored in a 'SectionTable' environment). Sections in
% which each entry might just have one line are stored in a 'SectionTableSingleSpace'
% environment. The only difference between the two environments is the line
% spacing between each entry. Both environments take one argument, which is the
% title of the section. See main document for how these environments are used.
% Define settings for left-hand column in which dates are printed
\newcolumntype{R}{>{\raggedleft}p{1in}}
