Senior Thesis

Our vision for students at CSW is “to graduate young men and women who think clearly and listen carefully with discernment and understanding, who reason persuasively and articulate precisely, who are capable of evaluating their entire range of experience in the light of the Scriptures, and who do so with eagerness in joyful submission to God.”

A demonstration of this vision is the CSW Senior Thesis, which is the culmination of our students’ studies and a rite of passage at CSW that is required for graduation. CSW seniors develop a thesis, research it extensively, write a paper that clearly outlines their position, and finally, present and defend their findings to a panel of teachers and professionals.
