Capitalization

Hi there,

Let's say I first type "Brown University Eta Psi Chapter Award" as a title like that... if I'm referring to it later on in the same piece of writing, do I have to capitalize the words 'chapter' and 'award'?

For example:

Through my participation in the chapter, I ended up winning the award.

Would I have to capitalize chapter and award?

Thanks!

Hi, I'd say the capitals are optional. But I'd also say that in modern English we tend to avoid a lot of capitals if possible. Clive
