Welcome to the world of the Senior Thesis, the capstone of the classical experience whereby students are invited to select a topic of personal interest to them, conduct extensive research driven by questions and uncertainties, and communicate their findings in a compelling, engaging, and original way. The Senior Thesis essay is a research-driven argument that explores a topic thoroughly and aims to persuade a reader of truth or perspective as evidenced by abundant source material and compelling rhetoric.
