Wesleyan theses
Wesleyan theses and dissertations in the library collections fall into three
main groups:
Click on the name of any group for more information. Additional queries about theses and dissertations
should be directed to Special Collections & Archives staff.
In summary, one archival copy of each thesis and dissertation is received by
SC&A, where it is treated as a manuscript. It does not circulate and must be
read in the SC&A reading room.
There may be additional uncataloged copies elsewhere on the campus, in
department offices or with thesis advisers. Additionally, a microfilm of each
Ph.D. dissertation is kept in the Microforms Center.
Wesleyan has awarded masters' degrees since 1892 and Ph.D.s since 1965; the
first honors theses date from the 1930s.
How do I request a photocopy?
You may request a thesis by submitting a
Request for Reproduction,
found at
http://www.wesleyan.edu/libr/schome/repro.pdf
In order to make a copy of an undergraduate thesis, the author's permission
needs to be on file before we are permitted to copy any or all of the thesis. If
it is not already on file, we will contact the author and request permission.
This process can occasionally be lengthy.
Once we have both author permission and a completed Request for Reproduction,
we will contact you with the cost of the thesis. The cost for photocopying
all SC&A materials is 25 cents per page for non-Wesleyan community requests and
10 cents per page for Wesleyan community members (faculty, staff, students,
alumni, etc.). There is a charge of $3.50 for shipping & handling. Checks need
to be drawn in US dollars, made out to Wesleyan University and sent to Special
Collections & Archives, Wesleyan University, 252 Church St., Middletown, CT
06459. We cannot accept credit cards.
Upon receipt of the payment, we will begin the photocopying process.
For any questions regarding Wesleyan University theses, contact Special
Collections & Archives at sca@wesleyan.edu or lhurteau@wesleyan.edu.
