Very sorry about that. I am new to the site. I think it has something to do with the title page, but I am not sure what. The footnotes look fine without a title page.

I have been playing with this oddity for awhile, and cannot make heads or tails of it.
My footnotes are too wide. I want the footnote margins to match my main text, but they extend too far in both directions. I cannot isolate the package that is causing it. Here is my messy preamble, thanks for looking.\footnote{I have been playing with this oddity for awhile, and cannot make heads or tails of it.

I hope that is slimmed down enough. I am really not sure where the formatting is coming from so I kept my entire preamble.
