Traditions

What is your most cherished Christmas tradition?
Attending Midnight Mass?
A holiday meal and the conversation that surrounds it?
Gathering for a photo that captures your family’s evolution after another year gone by?
The finishing touch of putting the star on top of the Christmas tree?
Maybe it’s all of these and more.

Among our many traditions at Marquette University is giving thanks for the students who constantly bring new life and energy to our campus, for the faculty and staff who challenge our students to reach new levels of achievement and create an incredible environment in which they can learn, for our Jesuits who illuminate our path, and for our alumni and friends who want to ensure the unique education available at Marquette continues to grow and thrive in the 21st century.
