Narducci stresses that writing a thesis is "not for everyone."
Padilla, who chose not to write a thesis, says he spent his extra time taking language courses, travelling around the Northeast on weekends and learning ballroom dance.
"I wanted to say I wrote a thesis, but there was nothing I thought would carry me through a whole year," he says. "Plus, I wanted to do other things my senior year."
Padilla feels he is satisfying his academic thirst as well. Instead of the thesis, he is taking a government seminar on democratization in Latin America, a subject that greatly interests him.
Padilla said he does not regret his decision. "The real reason to do a thesis is to do something that you enjoy, not for someone or something else. It will be a painful and miserable experience otherwise," he says.CrimsonGrigory TovbisCHRISTOPHER E. J. SIMONS '97 shows off his creative writing thesis...
