From the footmisc manual:

  User interface---interactions with other packages
  ...
  hyperref

    The hyperref package has ambitions to make hyperlinks from
    footnote marks to the corresponding footnote body; naturally this
    causes grief to footmisc, and unfortunately no remedy is currently
    known. If you use footmisc, suppress hyperref’s hyper-footnotes,
    by loading it as:

    \usepackage[hyperfootnotes=false,...]{hyperref}

    Further work on the interaction between the two packages is
    proposed, but not yet scheduled.

I can't delay the hyperref import until after footmisc, because the
hyperref import happens inside drexel-thesis.
