Department / Capstone

Thigh Studies and Institutional Culture

THI is the academy's capstone department. The senior research seminar and thesis program bring strength, style, food, wellness, movement, and campus culture into a single sustained argument worthy of a degree.

Department Overview

THI is small by design. Each senior is paired with a faculty advisor and a thesis committee, and joins a cohort that meets through the colloquium and the public defense — the academy's two principal scholarly events of the year.
