AGES

Always use integers to notate age . Hyphenate when the figure serves as an adjective or substitutes for a noun .

• He is 12 years old .

• She is a 30-year-old woman .

• The 3-year-old was crying .

CAMPUS LOCATIONS

Locations on an EFSC campus are publicized using the following format ( capitalization and punctuation included ): Building #, Room #

• The meeting will be held in Building 1 , Room 143 .

When necessary to conserve space , this format may be abbreviated as follows : Bldg . #, Rm . # or Bldg . #, Room #

• The event will take place on the Titusville Campus ( Bldg . 1 , Rm . 143 ).

• Is the meeting scheduled to be held in Bldg . 1 , Room 107G ?

Each element of a location should be capitalized and separated by commas – including descriptive locations lacking a specific building or room number .

• Melbourne Campus , Bldg . 6 , Titan Field House

CAPITALIZATION

Avoid the unnecessary use of capital letters . Sentences read more smoothly if the eye is not stopped by frequent capitalization . The word " college " is capitalized when it specifically refers to EFSC .

Capitalize the following :

* If you ’ re referring to a campus or several campuses in general , do not use capitalization ( e . g ., The event will be held today on all four EFSC campuses .)
