Marquette University Top Questions

What's unique about your campus?

Ashlee

What I consider the best thing about school is that one is able to learn something new each time you step into the classroom. It might not seem imprtant to you right away but down the line one can always take away from something that they have learned in school. The learning experience doesn't necessarily have to be educational to that person but just as long as it was fullfilling to them mentallly that's really all that matters.

I love the interaction between students and professors. As a biomedical sciences major, I have had the opportunity to meet future professors and students within my major that I would otherwise not meet until my third and fourth year. This year alone I have gone on a breakout retreat, volunteered for the special olympics, and attended multiple biomedical sciences association meetings with professors and students all within my major. These opportunities have allowed me to build relationships with future professors who will not only be teaching me future classes but will also be writing medical school recommendation letters for me.

The best thing about my school is the sense of community on campus. There is always someone there who is willing to look after you or be there for you if you need them. The spiritual aspect of Marquette adds to this sense of community; however, it is neither overpowering or necessary to be religious in order to feel accepted. This is such a necessity because when students are away from home, they need to know they are not alone.

The best thing about Marquette University is the community in which the students are invited into. There is such a feeling of family and home when I stepped on campus. I could ask any person on the campus a question and I would get an answer. Everyone is so open with each other and there are friends out there for everyone. The professors in the Marquette community just want the students to succeed. They are there for me anytime and want the students to be successful. They want their students to leave with a real life education.

The MSCS department is the best thing because the people are very friendly and helpful there. It's a good place to both meet friends in a similar field, and to study and use computer equipment.

Chelsea

The best thing about Marquette is its dedication to giving students a quality education. All classes are taught by actual professors, with the TAs leading discussion sections and lab sections. Almost every professor makes themselves easily available outside of class for students who need extra assistance, and there are numerous programs around campus where students can go for tutoring help. As someone who takes their education seriously, I appreciate my school doing the same, and it's simply more satisfying for me to have to work hard for a good grade than to be handed an A without learning anything.

Friendliness and the Jesuit education. Well respected institution. Great alumni. Many activities to do both on weekends and weekdays to get away from school work.

Katherine

Marquette University is a Jesuit based school. The Jesuits firmly believe that whnen you learn something, you should learn every part of it and learn to accept things that are different from what you know. At Marquette, the students are given the opportunity to reach out and try new experiences. They focus a lot on education and really learning how to live. The best thing is the care of a person's identity- cura personalis.
