The Center for Thomistic Studies In its 28th year, the Center for Thomistic Studies is the only graduate philosophy program in the United States uniquely focused on the thought of St. Thomas Aquinas. In the pursuit of a living Thomism, the Center’s programs stress both historical understanding of Aquinas’s texts and a rigorous rethinking of his thirteenthcentury wisdom in the light of twenty-first century problems and realities.
