"The Jesuit work ethic is all the rage at Marquette University, where students say academic excellence is abundant. Distribution requirements are rigorous, including coursework in mathematics, theology, science and liberal arts. Milwaukee provides a hopping social scene."
— The Princeton Review:
Visiting College Campuses 2004
"'Marquette students really are a community. Everyone supports everyone else,' says a senior. Innovative programs combine classroom theory with volunteer opportunities in Milwaukee and beyond. ... Still, no matter how dynamic the basketball team or how impressive the facilities, it's the family atmosphere that makes Marquette what it is."
— Fiske Guide to Colleges 2005
