The Only Art Major on Campus: The Performing Arts Department fights for recognition despite its anonymity within the Marquette community
Marquette has a theatre. Marquette has a theatre department. Marquette has a theatre major. Really. “I have gotten on the L.I.M.O. and told them to go to the Helfaer Theatre, and they have pulled up in front of the Varsity. That happened twice,” said Jessica Orr, a junior double major in Theatre Arts and Communication Studies. The [...]

Mission Accomplished? Does Mission Week complete its mission to challenge students?
At Marquette University, mission is everything. Mission is, or should be, the reason behind every major decision made by every office on campus. It is, and should be, what drives this University to become the very best that it can be. Especially this time of year, mission takes on a new meaning. It transcends the [...]

Stop useless gestures to save the environment
Posted on 26 April 2009
This entire week, in recognition of Earth Day, Marquette dining halls will forgo the use of trays in an effort to conserve water and energy. I am sure that certain groups on campus will hail this as a great leap forward in the campus’s efforts to save the environment. In reality, it will be much [...] Continue Reading

Financial aid and spiritual advice to those who need it
Posted on 26 April 2009
Despite how Asher Roth characterizes college in his hit single, the college experience of most Marquette students is far more dynamic and substantive. Our university is full of real people with real hopes and dreams, real ambitions and aspirations and real challenges and struggles. Sure, weekends are often host to a menagerie of beer pong [...] Continue Reading

Don’t stuff your money under a foundation. Invest in scholarships
Posted on 26 April 2009
Marquette University actively strives towards becoming a top national university, and as such I applaud the work that Marquette has done over the past few years with regards to buildings and physical improvements on campus (see the Wells Street median just beginning to undergo construction). The new law school, Zilber Hall, McCabe Hall and the [...] Continue Reading

Revise the curriculum for introductory English courses
Posted on 26 April 2009
Marquette University has a very respectable curriculum which is nationally recognized. Its students go on to succeed in respectable Master’s and Doctorate programs and our departing seniors tend to have relatively good job placement. But there is one part of our curriculum which needs to be addressed. That area would be our introductory English programs, [...] Continue Reading

All good things come to an end
Posted on 26 April 2009
For the past few weeks I have been very excited about writing this column, partly because I don’t have to scour my brain for a topic I haven’t already written about but mostly because I have been looking forward to using this opportunity to thank my friends, family and faculty at Marquette University for the [...] Continue Reading

Good luck, Class of 2009
Posted on 26 April 2009
Congratulations to the Marquette University Class of 2009. For a mere $120,000 you are now the proud owner of one sheet of paper that says you may know a little something about something. I say that not to diminish the value of your education, but because if I have learned one thing during my time [...] Continue Reading

Bridge between Wisconsin Ave. and Wall Street Marquette’s AIM program preps students for ethical futures in finance
Posted on 26 April 2009
At first it may seem inconsistent to pair signature Jesuit values of social justice and selflessness with finance, an industry explicitly based on amassing wealth. The students and faculty of Marquette’s Applied Investment Management Program would disagree. “If there’s a public perception that finance is corrupt, then that’s a false perception,” AIM program director Dr. David Krause [...] Continue Reading

MUSG has saving graces: how I was wrong (and right)
Posted on 26 April 2009
Ray Redlingshafer and his administration in Marquette University’s Student Government did not achieve anything great this past year. There is not much debate about that. Take a look around, is anything different? Are there computers in the AMU? No. Is the project to get a median on Wells Street completed? No. As such, it used to [...] Continue Reading

Controversy swirls at Georgetown over President’s speech
Posted on 26 April 2009
On Tuesday April 14, President Barack Obama delivered an economic and general policy speech in Georgetown University’s Gaston Hall. Although the President’s economic policy is controversial, to those familiar with Gaston Hall, something else seemed slightly off. In a move that came as more or less (depending on how much you know about Georgetown University) of [...] Continue Reading

Taxpayer Tea Parties: Pointless protesting or ardent point?
Posted on 26 April 2009
There has been a lot of talk in the news lately about these so called “tea parties” around the country. A few of them even took place right here in Wisconsin. I had the opportunity to attend the rally in Madison, and since most Marquette students did not get the chance to attend I thought [...] Continue Reading

The case for KFC How the Colonel could help repave Milwaukee’s roads, free up millions of city budget dollars and decrease parking tickets
Posted on 26 April 2009
As the end of April draws near, the city finally unthaws and spring truly arrives. Yet for students who drive, the melting snow merely reveals the heavy toll that Wisconsin’s harsh winters take on the city’s streets. Over the winter, snow and rain accumulate in a street’s existing cracks. When this precipitation freezes it expands; when [...] Continue Reading
