\section*{First page without headers (pagestyle \texttt{plain})}
\label{sec:first-page-without}

\begin{boxedminipage}{\textwidth}
This is example 2 in the fancyhdr documentation. It has simple headers and footers:
The header has {``\textbf{The performance of new graduates}''} in the right-hand side corner.
The footer has ``From: K. Grant'' on the left, ``To: Dean A. Smith'' in the center, and the page number on the right. And the footer has a thicker (2pt) line. Left and right pages are the same.

This is like example 1, but on the first page the pagestyle \texttt{plain} is used.
