Without being negative anyone else found this statement a bit strange - "as my bachelor thesis was about Rails"

* I am not aware of any CS program that do thesis at a bachelor level.

* It is hard for me to imagine getting approval for doing a thesis on "Rails", it is mostly a CRUD web framework.

I found it a bit strange, but not that strange. First, a "thesis" isn't too uncommon at the BA level. I majored in math at UCSC where this is an option. Can't say if this is something people do in CS, but I wouldn't be surprised.

I could see how someone might find material in the emergence of Rails in web programming for a thesis at the undergraduate level.
