Like you, we are grappling with racially motivated violence, the pandemic, and inequities facing our community, city, and country. Individually and collectively we recognize the harm that has been done and the need for transformation, healing, comfort, and support during these tumultuous times. As we begin the summer, Marquette remains focused and committed to our mission of Excellence, Faith, Leadership, and Service while supporting our students, employees, and neighborhood. Please join us for a discussion with three university leaders to learn about Marquette’s response to the two public health crises – the coronavirus pandemic and longstanding racism in our society.
