Editorial Guidelines on Bullets: 1. Vertical lists are best introduced by a grammatically complete sentence followed by a colon. No periods are required at the end of entries unless at least one entry is a complete sentence, in which case a period is necessary at the end of each entry. Example: A university can be judged by three measures: · The quality of its students · The quality of it faculty · The quality of its infrastructure 2. If a list completes the sentence that introduces it, items begin with lowercase letters, commas or semicolons (if individual items contain commas) are used to separate each item, and the last item ends with a period. Note that the introductory clause does not end with a colon. Example: A university can be judged by · the quality of its students, · the quality of its faculty, · the quality of its infrastructure. 3. Avoid mixing sentence and nonsentence items in a bulleted list. 2
