Since coming to Marquette, I have developed a deepening sense of the university's impressive scope and its dedication to educating students to engage, lead and improve the world around them. A proud tradition of support by benefactors for Marquette and its Catholic and Jesuit mission makes possible the excellence we achieve in the transformative education we provide to our students.
Humbled to be part of both this legacy and the Marquette family, I invite you to join me and all involved alumni and friends in making the next chapter of that tradition — our chapter — the most extraordinary to date.
With gratitude,
Scott R. Pilarz, S.J.
President

PRESIDENT'S SOCIETY
The President's Society is Marquette’s way of recognizing and thanking those who have helped to advance the university through annual giving of $2,500 to more than $25,000. Annual gifts can be directed to any area or need that is important to you. In addition to being recognized as a benefactor, you will have preferred access to university leadership, communication and programming. Learn more about the President's Society.
