Benefactors
Each year, starting in the fall and continuing well into the spring, the seniors of Thomas Aquinas College labor to create what will be the culmination of their four years of academic efforts — the senior thesis. Based on a subject of each student’s own choosing, and drawing from the College’s classical curriculum, the thesis represents its author’s effort to apply his or her education to a matter of scholarly and personal importance.
The above slideshow features photographs of the members of the Class of 2017 and the titles of their Senior Theses.

& “Most Religious Students”
Note: Dr. Michael F. McLean, president of Thomas Aquinas College, delivered the following remarks at the 2017 Summer Seminar Weekends. Participants in the seminars examined Leo Tolstoy’s Father Sergius, Aristotle’s consideration of friendship and its relation to virtue in the Nicomachean Ethics, and St. Thomas Aquinas’ teaching on charity as the love of God and our neighbor in the Summa Theologiae.
Each summer, Thomas Aquinas College invites members of the President’s Council — the backbone of the College’s financial-aid fund — to one of two Great Books Summer Seminar Weekends. At these weekends participants get an inside look at the unique education that they so generously help to make possible.
