I ended up using the patch that Alex suggested and that worked to get around the caption package conflict with the ucthesis class, but ultimately I abandoned trying to use the subfig package. I just edited my figure files to contain the different parts a), b), etc. and the associated labels and ...

yep, that did the trick. Thanks!

Thanks to you both. I think gmedina's solution is pretty much what I need. However, if the text from one of the bulleted items gets wrapped onto a second line it is not indented to line up with the text from the first line, like it is when the \cvlistitem command is used. I tried to use \hangindent ...

I am using the moderncv.cls class file to make a resume'. I want to do a very simple thing, which is to put a bulleted list into the {description} portion of a \cventry. The \cventry command takes options as follows: \cventry{years}{degree/job title}{institution/employer}{localization}{grade ...

Yeah, I was talking about the ucthesis class file.

Does the uct11fix.sty file have to be in a certain place? I dropped the following code into a file and named it as you said and saved it in the ucthesis folder, but it gives emergency stop error because it can't find the file. Or does the file ...

Worked like a charm - no adverse side effects so far.

Works fine just dropping this code into the preamble. I tried dropping it into the class file instead but that didn't work. Maybe it has to be in a certain place? Sorry, I don't know much about editing class files.

Thanks!

Again, thanks Axel. But I have one more for you. There seems to be a clash between the setspace and caption packages within ucthesis.

If I run this code...
\documentclass[11pt,draft]{ucthesis}

\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{setspace}
\usepackage[]{caption}

\begin{document}

\begin{figure ...

Ahhh, I see. Thanks guys.

I found this information (below) in the caption package documentation. Simply loading the subfig package first was enough to fix the problem.

Option clash for package caption.

It seems that the caption package cannot be used in the ucthesis class, both available from CTAN. It runs error free when I load the package with no options, but when I select options I want it produces an error: "Latex error: Option clash for package caption" and the options I chose are not used ...
