Students called to volunteer, while Archdiocese struggles financially

Posted on 16 April 2008 by Remington Tonar

Marquette’s Catholic community is, in many respects, self contained; very few students are acutely aware of the Archdiocese of Milwaukee’s recent financial struggles.

The Archdiocese [...] Continue Reading
