All thesis drafts must be prepared in conformity with the latest editions of the seminary's "Guidelines for Papers, Theses, and Dissertations" and Turabian's A Manual for Writers of Term Papers, Theses, and Dissertations. Where these sources differ, the seminary's "Guidelines" takes precedence. The "Guidelines" are included with MABC-Summer Institute Program material and are available to MABC-Resident students through the TMC Library. Turabian is a helpful thesis/dissertation summary of the Chicago (CMS) style.
