I want people, particularly civic and educational leaders, to recognize the
outstanding research being conducted at Marquette, to appreciate the quality of students
we graduate with their commitment to the greater good and to understand the fiscal
realities of higher education.
Universities are financial entities, but they are not driven solely by financial
considerations. The entire purpose of a university is to embrace the range of human
experience and understanding, both contemporary and historical. No other institution in
the society accepts that role (save libraries, in a limited way), let alone pursues it
with such vigor despite all its economic challenges. Our goal should be to offer the
fullest and best education we can in a way that is economically plausible and
sustainable.
