washington and lee student work -- honors theses and other material

 

Washington and Lee University students may be invited to submit academic work for preservation in the University Library's digital and/or printed collections.   In each case, a permission form should accompany the work.

HONORS THESES

All students completing honors theses should submit a copy to the University Library for preservation and research purposes.

Each student determines whether access to his/her thesis should be online or in paper form.

• W&L now has the capability of preserving and making available in online form the full contents of a student's honors thesis via W&L's Digital Repository -- but only with the permission of the student. 
• Printed copies of honors theses are maintained in the library's Special Collections. 

Submitting the Thesis

Students who are honors candidates should submit a printed or digital copy of the completed thesis to the University Library, accompanied by a completed permission form.

  

The form's basic options are

• The content of your thesis will be available online to all users, as in this example.
• Or, the content of your thesis will be available online only to members of the W&L community, as in this example.   Thus, only members of the University community with valid W&L logins may access your thesis online.
• Or, the content of your thesis will be available only in printed form in Special Collections, as in this example.

Students who wish to have a copy of their thesis printed and bound -- at their own expense -- should contact Thesis on Demand.
