Adam Thomas, Ph.D., is Associate Director of the Lyceum Program and Adjunct Assistant Professor in the Department of Political Science. Before joining the CISC, he was a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the James Madison Program at Princeton University and the T. W. Smith Postdoctoral Fellow in Western and American Political Thought at Furman University's Tocqueville Program. Thomas received a B.A. in Political Science from Furman University and his Ph.D. in Political Philosophy and American Politics from Boston College.

Thomas's interest in the medieval Christian engagement with classical political philosophy has led him to study the foundations of law, justice, and constitutionalism in Cicero, Augustine, and Thomas Aquinas. He is currently at work on a manuscript project, Cicero, St. Augustine, and the Politics of Virtue.
