About the Forum

Marquette Forum 2019-20

Pathways to Educational Access and Opportunity

Engaging with the spirit that led to the creation of the Educational Opportunity Program in 1969, the Marquette Forum will explore opportunities and challenges to creating educational access for all communities. To learn more about the EOP 50^th anniversary celebrations, see the website: https://www.marquette.edu/eop-50th-anniversary/

Building on last year’s theme, “Democracy in Troubled Times,” Forum events will engage students, faculty, staff, and the communities making up with Greater Milwaukee in conversations on overcoming the threats to the future of educational opportunity, including:
•  Increased wealth disparities nationally
•  Ballooning higher education cost
•  Mass incarceration policies
•  Healthcare inequities

As a Catholic, Jesuit university, the Marquette community is encouraged to consider these challenges by engaging with the Forum and participating in events. The Forum will also support existing symposia, conferences and colloquia related to educational access and opportunity.

For a list of previous years’ Forum themes and events, see the following link:

Spread the word about #MUForum.

This site will be updated throughout the academic year as we add events to our schedule.
