At Marquette University, we are passionate about potential, called to draw out the unique gifts and talents found inside each of our students. It’s a drive that has defined Jesuit higher education for nearly 500 years. So, as we prepare students for their chosen careers, we also kindle the Ignatian values of reflection, attentiveness and action guided by contemplation. In ways that welcome people of all faiths, we are a community ready to explore God’s presence among us — touching our souls, igniting our passions and calling us to be the difference in the lives of others. 10 P.M.

INQUIRY
Intellectual journeys take Marquette students, faculty, staff and alumni in all possible directions, but they all share a common launching point: a foundation in inquiry and an invitation to lifelong learning descended from the Jesuits’ groundbreaking early curriculum. We wrestle with life’s mysteries and difficult questions, we nurture abilities to think critically, and we equip ourselves to navigate an increasingly complex and diverse world. Whether it’s in laboratories and collaborative spaces on campus or communities around the globe, the members of this university community feel at home pushing knowledge beyond existing boundaries and striving for innovative solutions to pressing problems.

ABOUT MARQUETTE UNIVERSITY Marquette University is a vibrant academic community with a 133-year history of leadership in Catholic, Jesuit higher education. The university’s 11 colleges and schools, including Wisconsin’s only School of Dentistry and one of only two law schools in the state, enroll nearly 12,000 students. These students come to Marquette’s campus in Milwaukee from every state and 72 countries. Through a rigorous, values-centered curriculum, Marquette develops students’ minds and hearts, creating graduates who are poised to lead limitless lives. Faculty members are true teacher-scholars whose scholarship enriches what is taught in the classroom and contributes to the expansion of human knowledge. Research at Marquette identifies responses to critical issues such as water shortages in developing countries, better care for children with orthopedic diseases, new treatments for neurological disorders and addictions, and more. Fulfilling the dream of Milwaukee’s first archbishop, the Most Rev. John Martin Henni, Marquette opened in 1881 to meet the needs of a city experiencing rapid industrialization and waves of immigration. Families headed by hardworking parents found the doors to higher education open for the first time. Again and again, the university has affirmed this founding vision of providing educational access for those who seek it. In 1909, Marquette admitted women, making it the first Catholic university in the world to educate undergraduate men and women side by side. Marquette’s pioneering Educational Opportunity Program, established in 1969 by Dr. Arnold Mitchem to support firstgeneration students, became a national model and led to the establishment of the Washington, D.C.-based Council for Opportunity in Education. The university was the 10th higher education institution bestowed the Changemaker Campus title by the Ashoka Institute, a leader in social entrepreneurship — the practice of applying sustainable business models to solve social problems. Marquette’s location near the heart of Milwaukee reflects the dedication of the Jesuits to urban education and benefits students through opportunities to engage neighbors and access a wealth of internships and service learning programs. In 2013, Marquette was named to the President’s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll for the seventh year in a row. The university’s investment of nearly $400 million since 1995 in campus construction, renovation and improvement projects has enhanced educational programs and facilities and helped revitalize Marquette’s surrounding neighborhood. Marquette’s athletic teams compete in the highly competitive Big East Conference, and the university’s more than 110,000 alumni worldwide are known both for their commitment to the university’s academic mission and their boundless passion for Marquette athletics.

SERVICE SERVICE
A drive to make a difference unites the entire Marquette community, which may explain why more than 80 percent of Marquette undergraduates participate in community service every year and so many of our alumni continue growing in their commitment to service long after graduation. Taking lead roles in promoting social justice and addressing inequities, students spend their spring breaks rebuilding areas destroyed by hurricanes; organizing one of Milwaukee’s largest annual one-day service projects; and establishing organizations such as Global Brigades when they see unmet needs. Alongside our faculty and staff, students combine community service with classroom study, collaborating with Marquette’s health care, dental, behavioral and literacy clinics, which extend care and compassion to our most underserved neighbors.

“ For nearly 500 years, Jesuit education has transformed students to make our world better, and I am committed to building on that tradition by providing Marquette students a campus experience that is second to none.” — President Lovell
SYMBOLS OF INVESTITURE
ACADEMIC DRESS The various gowns and hoods preserve the style of their medieval origin and indicate by color and design the degree and institution from which the degree was conferred. Black is the basic color for gowns in the United States. The bachelor’s gown is distinguished by its long, open sleeves; the master’s by its closed, slitted sleeves; and the doctoral by its full sleeves trimmed with velvet. The velvet on a doctoral gown may be black or a color denoting the field in which the degree was earned. Academic hoods vary in length according to the degree and are lined with the colors of the institution that conferred the degree. Hoods of Marquette University are lined with blue and gold. The yoke of the hood is edged in a color that indicates the field in which the degree was earned. The color of the tassel on the cap is also indicative of that field.
MARQUETTE SEAL The Marquette University seal is composed of two halves enclosed within a blue circular band that includes the year of the university’s founding, 1881. The upper half bears the motto Numen Flumenque, or “God and the (Mississippi) River,” and the coat of arms of the Loyola family in honor of St. Ignatius of Loyola, founder of the Society of Jesus. The gold and red diagonal bands honor seven war heroes from the House of Onaz, the maternal side of Ignatius’ lineage. The wolves symbolize the generosity of the House of Loyola — even the wolves found something in the kettle on which to feast after others had their fill. The lower half depicts the 17th-century Jesuit missionary and explorer after whom the university is named, Father Jacques Marquette, who lived among various Great Lakes tribes for nine years, seeking to win their commitment to the Gospel. An American Indian represents the numerous native people who accompanied and guided Father Marquette on his explorations of the western Great Lakes and Mississippi River system.
12
CHAIN OF OFFICE The tradition of a chain of office dates back to the Middle Ages. The mayor of a medieval town was presented, at his investiture, with a chain of medallions that represented the guilds working together for the welfare of the town. The chief official of a medieval university held similar authority and thus was honored with a chain of office, but his was composed of insignia of all the university’s colleges. Marquette’s presidential chain of office was presented on December 16, 1953, to then-president Rev. Edward J. O’Donnell, S.J., by four professors who found refuge at the university after being exiled from their communist homelands. A gold medallion bearing the likeness of two Jesuit saints, Ignatius of Loyola and Francis Xavier, hangs from the chain with 21 bronze links, including the Marquette seal, the symbol of the Blessed Trinity, and insignia of the university’s schools and colleges.
MARQUETTE MACE Maces were medieval war clubs. At universities, the mace became a traditional symbol of protection and later evolved into use as a longer walking stick. The academic mace today is associated with the dignity of the university and the preservation of it as a place where all subjects may be explored. The mace bearer is traditionally one of the university’s senior faculty members. Marquette’s mace, made of mahogany and topped with a replica of the university seal, has been incorporated in university ceremonies since 1990.
