One-day Pre-College Workshop 

Tuesday, August 12, 2025, 9:00 am-2:00 pm

Johnston Hall (1131 W. Wisconsin Avenue)

Marquette University’s Diederich College of Communication invites high school students to participate in a free, one-of-a-kind, on-campus opportunity to learn more about Marquette, the field of communication and themselves, through the art of storytelling. 

In this one-day workshop led by College of Communication faculty, students will participate in hands-on learning about strategic communication and journalism with leading-edge tools to discover and share their strengths. Key workshop components will teach students to:

• Discover your personal brand! Branding is an important element in strategic communication and developing your personal brand helps you represent your best, authentic self, both professionally (in an internship or first job) and personally.

• Celebrate your story by sharing who you are in various ways, from paper to video to sound. We’ll help you harness the power of media to not only tell your story but also learn how these skills will become a gateway to future careers in journalism, strategic communication and creative media.

Applications are now closed. See you next year!
