Multi line title pushes date to next page

Having a title (in frontmatter.tex) that doesn't fit on one line will push the date onto the next page. Workaround is adding \vspace{-0.7cm} to the title text.

This temp fix worked for me. Thanks @rnett

I noticed this solution lifts the title up on the page wherever it occurs, making it misaligned with other text.
Instead, you can decrease the space between the title and presentation line to account for additional lines of title text.
Changing the corresponding \addvspace{} (line 341 in ucthesis.cls) from 1.4 to 1.1 works for my 2-line title.

I had this problem and changed "ucthesis.cls" like this:

   In Partial Fulfillment \par
   of the Requirements for the Degree \par

   \@degree~in~\@field
   \addvspace{0.35in} % changed this value from 0.65 to 0.35

   by \par

...

I removed .3 in from the vspace between the "degree in.." to "by..." until the degree month and year fit on the title page.
