Thank you everyone for your suggestions. I have managed to get the main
body lyx file setup properly. Now I am running into a small issue whenever
I try to include a chapter as a child document into my main lyx file. I get
the following error when I try to do a DVI preview or creating a PDF:
>>\usepackage
>> {amsmath}
>>The package graphicx has already been loaded with options:

I have set the document type of the child document (my chapters) to the same
type as the main lyx file (for which I created the layout file to point to
the ufthesis.cls file). Is the child document somehow redefining the
graphicx package options? Thanks.

I just meant that I would not use the example.tex they gave. Yes, I
would use the layout file that I have described. I would just start a
blank document with the ufthesis.layout and begin.
