Why Marquette?
I enjoy teaching at Marquette University because I relate to the mission of this institution. The mission encourages my students to challenge the status quo and discover ways in which they can “be the difference.” Marquette also creates an environment that allows me to build relationships with my students. As I see them in my classes, in my office, and on campus, I learn about their goals, thoughts, opinions, and hopes.
