As I start my second academic year at Marquette, I’m excited about launching the first group of projects supported through the university’s Strategic Innovation Fund. Similar to a venture capital fund, the fund was announced at my September 2014 inauguration

FROM PRESIDENT DR. MICHAEL R. LOVELL

and provides resources for promising innovative and entrepreneurial ideas that might transform our campus, Milwaukee and beyond. I am very proud that all submitted proposals truly embraced the mission of our university and feel blessed that the fund is being guided by Dr. Jeanne Hossenlopp, vice president for research and innovation, and a dedicated Innovation Council of more than 20 faculty, staff and students. (Read more about the fund online at marquette.edu/innovation.)

This fall 38 projects will be launched with startup funds. I’m pleased that seven of the projects have a specific focus on water and the environment. Given Pope Francis’ recent encyclical on the environment and Milwaukee’s efforts to become a global water hub, these projects couldn’t be more relevant or timely.

This is especially true as Marquette becomes a major tenant in the Global Water Center — a seven-story building fewer than two miles from campus that is becoming the epicenter of

Milwaukee’s water technology activities.

The community collaboration and outreach projects that were funded further demonstrate that helping others is part of Marquette’s DNA. One of the community-based projects will focus on enabling 21st century literacy acquisition and instruction in Marquette’s Hartman Literacy and Learning Center. The center focuses on improving reading skills of elementary school students while providing College of Education undergraduate students with hands-on opportunities to strengthen their core teaching abilities. The center is unique because it is the only one of its kind in the United States that buses second- and third-graders (from Milwaukee Public Schools) to a college campus for tutoring. With additional support from the Strategic Innovation Fund, the center will obtain state-of-the-art technology and software that will accelerate elementary students’ reading skills and allow Marquette’s future teachers to practice leading-edge teaching methods.

Another community-focused project, Promoting Assets and Reducing Crime, will make an immediate impact on Marquette’s neighborhood. This project will foster additional redevelopment and growth within the near-west side of Milwaukee, incorporate new community-based crime reduction techniques and create a strong neighborhood identity based on our numerous existing assets. In addition, the project will strengthen and enhance our expanding neighborhood partnership with Aurora Health Care, Harley-Davidson, MillerCoors and Potawatomi Business Development Corp.

Several projects that were funded will significantly enhance existing efforts on campus to expand our research and entrepreneurial activities, including: ■

Creation of a Human Performance Assessment Core. Led by

associate professor Dr. Paula Papanek, this project will strengthen and substantially expand our human performance research abilities.

In addition, it will set the stage for new programs that could be incorporated into the Athletic Performance and Research Center that we intend to build on the newly acquired land on the southeast corner of campus.

We’re in the process of investing nearly $5 million during 2014–15 and plan to commit at least an additional $3 million for 2015–16. Getting another set of transformational proposals from campus is just one more reason I look forward to an outstanding year at our university. If you have ideas that could add to our momentum, I’d love to hear them.

campus replay

George Andrie, Arts ’62, played in five National Football League Pro Bowls, won a Super Bowl and competed in the iconic Ice Bowl with the Dallas Cowboys. But even at age 72, one memory continued to gnaw at him: when Marquette dropped the football program after his junior year in 1960.

That memory came bubbling to the surface when Charlie Mangano, Jour ’76, asked Andrie to be the feature of a documentary filmed by his students in the Diederich College of Communication. “He was hesitant to get involved because of some hurt feelings about what happened when Marquette canceled the program,” Mangano says. “He finally agreed just to get me off his back.”

Andrie opened up about the nostalgia, pride, heartache and love story that started on campus and extended beyond his playing career. “He was as gracious and helpful to the students as you ever dreamed,” Mangano says, “a real classy man.”

The seeds of what became Doomsday Warrior: The Story of George Andrie began in the 1970s, when Mangano was an under-

1960 graduate at Marquette. He was surprised to learn Marquette was home to one of the greatest NFL stars of the era. Forty years later Mangano helped get students interested in a pilot for a series focusing on the lives of Marquette Hall of Famers.

Andrie was their first choice to feature.

The students — Mangano calls them the “magnificent seven”— spent the spring 2015 semester interviewing former NFL players and officials, assembling a script with narration by ESPN reporter Linda Cohn, and tracking down historic Marquette football footage.

At the end of the year, the students invited Marquette football alumni, athletics officials and others for a screening in Johnston Hall. Nearly 100 people packed the classroom to see the film and stayed 45 minutes afterward asking questions.

“The students put together a film that was as good as you will ever see anywhere,” Mangano says. “I’ve done a lot of great things during my career, including winning an Emmy, but this was one of my proudest achievements. The students were amazing.”

Just as important as the reception to the film was what it meant to Andrie and the team it featured. “George said it helped heal a lot of hurt feelings that remained over the years,” Mangano says.

“They were over the moon.” m TC

T

he center collaborated with Wade’s World Foundation to open this galaxy to 60 schoolchildren from Milwaukee’s underserved neighborhoods this summer in the Dwyane Wade Live to Dream Summer Reading Program. For six weeks, the children hopped on buses at Bruce Guadalupe Community School, Highland Community School, Brown Street Academy, Woodlands East, Milwaukee College Prep, St. Rose and St. Leo’s schools and came to Marquette to read.

Their “Wade Coaches” were new Marquette teaching grads who trained for this special assignment. They worked to help the children retain — maybe improve — reading skills during the school break. If the promise of better reading skills wasn’t enough of a carrot to attract the children to summer school, the visit by program namesake and Miami Heat all-star Dwyane Wade was more than ample payoff.

The Marquette alumnus read to the children, says associate professor of educational policy and leadership and center director Dr. Kathleen Clark, and told them how he used reading to help him play better basketball.

HIGH-FIVES ALL AROUND. Alumnus Dwyane Wade surprises students when he stops to talk about reading.

“Urban low-income children tend to lose between two and four months of reading ability during the summer,” Clark says.

“Success for us is if the children don’t lose reading skills.”

But Clark, her team of Wade Coaches and Wade’s World Foundation were happily rewarded. Statistical analyses comparing children’s mean pre- and post-program Qualitative Reading Inventory-5 and GatesMacGinitie Reading Test scores showed students made significant gains in recognizing words, comprehending and reading with fluency. “We’re thrilled to pieces,” Clark says. m JMM

THE GREATER MILWAUKEE FOUNDATION AND TODD WEHR FOUNDATION have agreed to partner

with Marquette and Wade’s World Foundation by committing $65,000 each to support the summer reading program through 2020.

CIVICS TEST What are Milwaukee’s most-pressing cultural and entertainment needs, and how should we fund them?

An interactive website co-sponsored by Marquette Law School and the Milwaukee-based Public Policy Forum allows users to simulate their own solutions.

“Asking greater-Milwaukee residents for their insights about the future of our cultural resources — our great parks, museums and fine arts institutions — is extremely important,” says President Michael R. Lovell. “With this civic participation, the Public Policy Forum and Marquette Law School will work together through this website to raise awareness of our city’s cultural and entertainment needs and position our city as a destination for generations to come.”

The site, accessable at simulation.law.marquette.edu, gives users information about potential investments in local cultural and entertainment assets and organizations, then allows them to prioritize the projects they see as most important and explore what potential financing package — if any — should be assembled to fund those needs. After the user completes his or her financing package, the site will generate a Web link that summarizes his or her results. Users can share their links with others — and, hopefully, continue an important community conversation.

The goal is to foster public discussion of regional cultural and entertainment needs in the wake of a yearlong series of deliberations conducted in 2014 by the Metropolitan Milwaukee Association of Commerce Cultural and Entertainment Capital Needs Task Force. m CJ

on campus What’s a big lifestyle adjustment for new student-athletes?

Adjusting to the physical demands of college sports. The fatigue and jam-packed nature of their day surprises most new college athletes. Waking up at 5:30 a.m. for strength and conditioning, then attending classes, meeting with the trainer, practices and study hall — it’s all taxing. We teach them how necessary sleep is to excellence.

CAMPUS Q&A

What is the toughest part of your job?

As a former track athlete Adrienne Ridgeway is well-acquainted with the heavy demands shouldered by student-athletes. The associate athletic director of academic support and student programs works with Marquette’s athletes, particularly the men’s basketball team, to help them succeed academically.

What is your role?

To counterbalance educational disadvantages students face as a result of participating in intercollegiate athletics and to provide counseling, advising and support services to foster their success.

What students use the academic support center?

Freshmen are required to complete eight to 10 study hours in the academic support center. They can progress out of required study hall by earning a 3.0 GPA the first semester. Continuing studentathletes must maintain a 2.5 cumulative average to not be required to attend study hall.

Is this service important to parents and recruits?

Our staff is often part of the recruiting process. Students want to know that in the process of practicing, competing and doing everything that is asked of them, they also will be supported academically. Parents often ask about tutoring services and how we support students during travel. They want to know that their son or daughter has an opportunity to be academically successful while competing athletically.

What is the single most important skill for student-athletes to master?

Seeing a student’s athletic career end due to injury is heartbreaking. Watching a student work hard on an academic task and not get the grade expected — that’s tough.

As a professional it is tough to operate on the schedule of student-athletes. The job has a lot of late nights and early mornings and somewhat mirrors that of a studentathlete — minus the workouts.

How do you oversee NCAA student affairs programming?

We provide opportunities for studentathletes to develop outside of competition.

Freshman programming is designed to bridge the gap between high school and college. Continuing student programming broadens to encompass leadership and service opportunities and much more.

How is Marquette’s program viewed?

Our program was recognized nationally

by CNN a few years ago for its success.

Many Marquette teams are recognized by the NCAA for outstanding scholastic scores, and we have been recognized for solid men’s basketball graduation rates. More than half of our student-athletes were selected to the 2014–15 Big East AllAcademic teams. m

#JesuitEducated Pope Francis’ U.S. visit inspired writers to reflect on Jesuit education. Go to medium.com/jesuit-educated and think about the “why” for you.

Two new deans (and one familiar face)

Dr. Brian Till was named Keyes Dean of Business Administration; two weeks later Dr. Kristina Ropella, Eng ’85, became Opus Dean of Engineering, a position she held on an interim basis since last spring. Both took office in July.

Till has a strong Jesuit pedigree. He was dean of the Williams College of Business at Xavier University since 2012. Prior to that he was professor and chair of marketing at St. Louis University. His tour also included a visiting year at Loyola University–Chicago. “Through my experiences at Jesuit universities I have seen firsthand how powerful the educational experience is for students,” Till says. “I think the strong liberal arts base, coupled with a business curriculum that has a valuesbased leadership overlay, is very powerful in preparing students for a rewarding personal and professional life.”

Ropella is no stranger in Engineering Hall. She joined the faculty in 1990 and served as chair of the Department of Biomedical Engineering from 2004–13, when she was named executive associate dean of the college and later interim Opus Dean. “I am deeply honored to have the opportunity as Opus Dean to serve the Opus College of Engineering and its community of students, faculty, alumni, industry and academic partners,” Ropella says. “As Marquette engineers we have the privilege, through our creativity and innovation, to profoundly improve the lives of each and every person in an ever-changing, increasingly complex world.

I look forward to leading the college in fulfilling this mission.”

Searches for deans of the College of Nursing and Diederich College of Communication will begin this fall. m CS

Fall 2015

There’s no delicate way to put this: I hated philosophy.

When I studied at Marquette, we in the humanities “had to take” four philosophy classes, and it was a study in frustration. It didn’t start well with my Intro to Logic course meeting at the ungodly hour of 8 a.m. every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

My friends and I argued all the time about the merits of our degrees. Does the world really need another philosophy (or classics or history) major?

Fifteen years later, I see the wisdom in studying philosophy. A Jesuit, liberal arts education won’t give us a list of practical skills and professional competencies that will be outmoded and surpassed in time. That’s not the point. The point of a liberal arts education, simply, is to make us more human.

A liberal arts education does not pin down right answers, but opens our minds to the right questions, important questions of meaning in a world that moves quickly. Is God real? If so, how does that influence how I live and love? How do I account for the good and evil I find in our world, our country and in my own heart?

I am 33 and have been a Jesuit in training for the priesthood for nine years. I have taught languages and theology at several high schools and even spent a year teaching philosophy at Creighton University. At 18, I didn’t always appreciate the questions my education introduced me to — but now I do. My Jesuit education drew me out. It made me more human. It shaped me to be the difference in a complex world. m Joseph Simmons, S.J., Arts ’04

“A liberal arts education does not pin down right answers, but opens our minds to the right questions.…”

Viruses and estrogens exist in water naturally but human factors have increased the amounts found in bodies of water used for drinking.

These contaminants are not currently regulated by the Environmental Protection Agency but are on the EPA’s Contaminant Candidate List as targets for priority research.

The results of this research will be valuable in making future regulatory decisions that provide a scientific basis for how the nation and world can improve water treatment processes. “Ultimately our results should lead to cleaner drinking water, healthier people and more efficient treatment processes that save cities money by using less energy than current processes,” Mayer says.

To complete the research, Mayer is working with Dr. Patrick McNamara, assistant professor of civil, construction and environmental engineering, and Dr. Daniel Zitomer, professor and director of the Water Quality Center.

Supporting the work are doctoral students Emily Gorsalitz and Joseph Heffron, and postdoctoral fellow Dr. Yi Yang. m AB

Standing in the center of a lab in the basement of Cramer Hall, freshman men’s basketball player Henry Ellenson executes a series of jumps while Todd Smith, director of sports performance, urges him on. It all happens under the watch of Dr. Kristof Kipp, assistant professor of exercise science in the College of Health Sciences.

Kipp uses “force plates”— a pair of small gray floor panels to measure the energy being exerted on them — and gauge the force Ellenson generates when performing several kinds of jumps.

The force plates feed data into a computer that records it for analysis. By establishing baseline numbers for the athlete, then taking the measurements of the same jumps later on, Kipp can evaluate how an athlete’s jumping abilities change during the season.

The Athletic Department’s strength and conditioning coaches can use the data to develop a player’s exercise regimens to maximize performance and prevent injuries.

“You can’t manage what you don’t measure,” Kipp says. “If you want to measure performance, accumulated fatigue and injury,

The experience was new to Ellenson.

“I think it’s neat that they’re measuring our jumps, and to be able to see how we improve throughout the year will be really neat,” he says.

KRISTINA ARRIAGA DE BUCHOLZ FIGHTS FOR RELIGIOUS FREEDOM. 16

Fall 2015

KRISTINA ARRIAGA DE BUCHOLZ, ARTS ’86, ISN’T YOUR TYPICAL WASHINGTON, D.C., POWERBROKER. Yes, she is executive director of a prestigious law firm. Yes, she has a spacious corner office with an enviable view of the fashionable Dupont Circle neighborhood. And, yes, her walls are adorned with photos of herself with lawmakers, ambassadors and heads of state, including presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush, as well as Coretta Scott King, widow of Martin Luther King, Jr., and Nobel laureate Elie Wiesel.

However among her most prized possessions are photographs of herself with Pope John Paul II, Archbishop of New York Cardinal John O’Connor, Anuttama Dasa of the Hindu Hare Krishna, Kit Bigelow of the Baha’i and Pastor Rick Warren of Saddleback Church, author of The Purpose Driven Life.

Arriaga is unafraid to show her spirituality on the job, which is to be expected given that she runs a law firm once dubbed God’s ACLU. She leads the Becket Fund, a nonprofit, public interest law firm that takes cases focused on religious liberty. The firm argues and frequently wins — with a success rate of 87 percent — high-profile, controversial cases that involve public expressions of faith. “The Becket Fund protects that freedom that is at the core of all other freedoms: religious liberty,” Arriaga says. “If we can’t live according to our deepest beliefs, then we have no freedom at all.”

Arriaga’s success at the Becket Fund is due in part to how passionate she feels about religious liberty, a consequence of her unusual upbringing. Her CubanAmerican parents fled their homeland after Fidel Castro came to power in 1959.

She was raised in Puerto Rico in a household where freedoms of the press, speech and religion were regularly discussed and appreciated. “Looking back I realize that we had nothing, but I never felt poor because my parents taught us that if we had freedom, we had everything,” she recalls. “We were taught to keep an eye out for government intrusion into our rights.”

She is a product of Catholic education, from kindergarten through her years at Marquette followed by master’s studies at Georgetown University. “I remember feeling moved by my theology classes at Marquette,” Arriaga says, adding that it was during her undergraduate years when she began to understand that faith provides an underlying purpose to all things and how universal it is for people to need to express their faith. “At Marquette I learned about the philosophical and theological underpinnings of Catholic social teaching. I learned the meaning of justice, just laws and unjust laws. I came to Washington, D.C., because I wanted to implement what I learned.”

Arriaga launched her career with a combination of skill, luck and chutzpah.

Fresh out of Marquette with a history degree, she was in Washington, D.C., to hear a talk by Armando Valladares, a Cuban artist and writer who was sentenced by the Castro regime to 30 years in prison for criticizing communism. In his international bestseller, Against All Hope, Valladares described being tortured and held in solitary confinement during 22 years in prison. He was released in 1982 after an appeal to Castro by French President François Mitterrand.

18

Fall 2015

After his speech Arriaga met Valladares and learned his interpreter had fallen ill on the trip. Valladares asked: “Can you translate for me?”

Arriaga jumped at the chance. “That moment changed my life,” she says.

A year later she was photographed sitting with Valladares in Reagan’s White House office wearing her only business suit and translating a rapid-fire conversation between the president and the former political prisoner. She spent 10 years working with Valladares, the man Reagan named U.S. ambassador to the Genevabased United Nations Human Rights Commission.

Arriaga became U.S. adviser to the U.S. delegation to the United Nations in 1991 and spent those years raising awareness of the plight of political prisoners in Cuba and aiding defectors and refugees.

Her most daring exploit came in 1993, when she coordinated a mission in which Orestes Lorenzo Perez, a Cuban Air Force MiG pilot who defected in 1991, flew a small Cessna to Cuba to rescue his wife and sons and bring them to Florida. Hanging on her office wall are mementos of the rescue mission: the orange baseball cap one of Perez’s children wore while waiting roadside in Cuba for his father to land the Cessna, along with clippings about the rescue mission from Reader’s Digest and Vanity Fair.

Traveling between Washington, D.C., and Geneva, Arriaga found time to get married and raise three children, who are now in high school and middle school. She joined the Becket Fund in 1995 and became executive director in 2010.

Seeing Arriaga today — a striking, fashionably dressed executive — it’s hard to imagine her as an ingénue translator speaking English as a second language. She is a passionate, articulate and savvy promoter of the Becket Fund and its vision of a country in which religious freedom is respected as a fundamental human right.

In hindsight Arriaga says her entire life experience prepared her for this job. She led the Becket Fund to some of its most significant legal victories in its 20-year history.

T

he Becket Fund is “stocked with really excellent lawyers,” says Emeritus Professor Ira Lupu of George Washington University Law School, a constitutional law expert who coauthored Secular Government, Religious People. “They are careful about the cases they take. They are polished and professional, and they are good at what they do. In the Hobby Lobby case, they out-lawyered the government

from the beginning to the end. It’s not that the government’s lawyers were bad; it’s just that they’re generalists at the Justice Department. The Becket Fund lawyers are specialists. They’re very sharp.”

Arriaga says the Becket Fund represents all faiths — from Anglicans to Zoroastrians and everything in between. “What all our cases have in common is that the government is trying to restrict religious freedom, which is a fundamental human right that everyone is entitled to exercise,” she explains.

She thinks religious liberty is under attack to a greater degree than at any time since the nation’s founding. “Our Constitution makes it clear that our rights do not come from the state. Therefore the state cannot take them away,” she says. “Much of what makes this country great is rooted in this principle. The emancipation movement, the civil rights movement, the fight for the rights of workers were all started by people who exercised their religious liberty by acting according to their deeply held beliefs and fought against unjust laws.”

On the horizon for the Becket Fund are more cases involving what Arriaga considers government overreach.

She appeared on television with Pastor Robert Soto, an American Indian and award-winning feather dancer.

Soto’s golden eagle feathers were confiscated by the Department of the Interior and returned after a legal decision nine years later. Arriaga pointed out that the government issues permits to power companies to kill golden eagles, which are no longer endangered, but it prohibits American Indians from picking molten feathers from the ground and using them in their religious ceremonies.

Also on the docket for the Becket Fund lawyers are more cases involving the contraception mandates of the Affordable Care Act, as well as implications of samesex marriage laws on business owners and religious institutions that support traditional marriage. The firm will continue to litigate for the rights of prisoners to express their faith traditions and the ability of religious organizations to build temples, mosques and churches despite restrictive zoning laws.

After nearly 30 years in a career that deals daily with human suffering — from the poverty, imprisonment and torture of Cuban dissidents to the inability of prisoners to follow the tenets of their faith — Arriaga is more committed than ever to the importance of religious liberty. She believes religious feelings are natural to all people and expressing religion in public is natural to all cultures. “Religious liberty is not about who God is. It’s about who we are,” she says. “That’s why it’s important to defend religious liberty as a principle regardless of the religion that’s involved in the case.” m From top: Arriaga pictured with Coretta Scott King, Pope John Paul II, Elie Wiesel, colleagues at the Becket Fund, and the Perez family.

ARRIAGA LED THE BECKET FUND TO SOME OF ITS MOST SIGNIFICANT LEGAL VICTORIES, INCLUDING:

HOLT V. HOBBS

In this 2015 case the Becket Fund represented Abdul Muhammad, a Muslim inmate in an Arkansas prison.

Muhammad was denied permission to grow a beard as his Muslim faith commands, although 44 state and federal prison systems around the country would permit his beard. The U.S. Supreme Court unanimously voted an inmate has the right to grow a halfinch beard for religious reasons. The unanimous decision states that prison officials can’t arbitrarily ban peaceful religious practices by all faiths.

BURWELL V. HOBBY LOBBY

In the 2014 case the Becket Fund represented the Green family and their business, Hobby Lobby, before the U.S. Supreme Court. The Greens are devout Christians who have a religious opposition to providing insurance coverage for four of 20 types of contraceptives mandated by the Department of Health and Human Services in the Affordable Care Act. The court ruled 5-4 that private, for-profit businesses like Hobby Lobby can’t be forced to pay for drugs and devices under the Affordable Care Act if doing so conflicts with the beliefs of the business owner.

HOSANNA TABOR V. EEOC

In the 2012 case the U.S. Supreme Court ruling in favor of the Becket Fund’s client ensured that religious organizations have the right to choose their own ministers. This unanimous decision upheld the authority of a Michigan religious school to fire a teacher without fear of government intervention from an employment discrimination perspective.

o an outside observer of college athletics this may come as a surprise.

To the current student-athlete spending road trips in the back of the bus reviewing handwritten note cards to prepare for a test, it may be hard to see right now. But to recently graduated student-athletes it is obvious: Playing college sports can give you a leg up in the working world.

Having spent four years doing everything it takes to compete in Division I sports while going to classes, managing time, working in groups and performing under pressure, former Golden Eagles find team building and career building aren’t really so different.

“When there is pressure, it kind of teaches you not to be afraid of it or shy away from it, but lean in, lean forward and go toward it,” says former women’s tennis player Christina Ruiz, Bus Ad ’11, now an IT sourcing leader at GE Healthcare in Milwaukee. “That’s what we’ve done our whole careers. I was able to balance my time, prioritize and maintain the grades that I had. Leaning on that teamwork, communication, different challenges, it was really valuable. And in the workplace they respect that.”

Training ground

College sports can be a great training ground for future employees. That may not be immediately obvious to the average fan, says Bill Scholl, Marquette’s vice president and director for athletics. “I think if an employer understands what varsity studentathletes, particularly at a major level like this, what their day looks like, what their week looks like, what they accomplish here — it is truly off the charts,” Scholl says.

“We have to do a better job of educating the public about the incredible demands of the college athletic experience.”

Multitasking, making the most of every minute, is a way of life for student-athletes who may at times be spotted running to class directly from the practice field.

“Sweaty, didn’t get to take a shower because we literally ran to class from the workout, exhausted, trying to pay attention,” is how former men’s tennis player Daniil Mamalat, Bus Ad ’14, remembers those days. “I’m there with a towel, trying not to look like a complete mess. And then we have another practice, and have to be in the training room every day. It’s like 8 o’clock at night and, well, I’ve got an exam tomorrow.

I definitely think it helps in that aspect, work

ethic and time management, because that’s crucial in the working world.”

When they were students, Mamalat and John Mau, Bus Ad ’14, commiserated over how few hours of sleep they’d get. “We’re having to plan our day from like 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. When are we going to get food?

When are we going to nap? When are we going to study? You’re planning your whole week out,” remembers Mau, a former men’s soccer player.

In addition to course work and athletics commitments, Mau and Mamalat applied for internships. Mau interned at Rockwell Automation, often driving to the company’s Milwaukee headquarters at 5 a.m. to get some work done before his morning practice at Valley Fields. Mamalat interned at Robert W. Baird & Co., and had remote computer access that allowed him to log in and do his work from hotel rooms when the team traveled.

Mau was grateful for the flexibility.

“They wanted us there and they wanted us involved, which is an absolute blessing,” he says. “They saw that we were putting out a quality product.”

Today Mau and Mamalat are employees of Rockwell Automation and part of the company’s leadership development program — a sure sign the multitasking paid off.

“It definitely helps with the projects and all the workload that we have at Rockwell,” Mau says. “It helps us balance our days. It really alleviates some of the initial stress because we’ve been in an environment like that.”

Adds Mamalat: “It almost seems like it’s easier in some ways because of that.”

Former women’s volleyball player Rachel Stier, Comm ’14, remembers making the most of team road trips. “Every girl would have some sort of homework out at all times,” says

Stier, now a solutions account associate at HON Co., an office furniture manufacturer in Muscatine, Iowa. “Same goes at airports. We got pretty good about sitting on planes and using every bit of time you had to study. You became good about it. You learned things that you can do without your computer. Even making note cards — you can just have them in your pocket.”

Former women’s lacrosse player Jennifer Zandlo, Bus Ad ’14, has similar memories.

“There were times I remember going through flashcards on the back of the bus, trying to stay awake, knowing that you have an exam the next day,” says Zandlo, who now works at Advantage International, a branding and marketing agency in Norwalk, Conn.

Employers spot the edge The connection between Marquette athletics and the business world might be most evident at Rockwell. A cornerstone of Milwaukee’s business community, the Fortune 500 company that specializes in industrial automation and information did $6.62 billion in global sales in fiscal year 2014 and employs approximately 22,500 people.

In addition to Mau and Mamalat, Rockwell’s roster features engineering grad Cheldon Brown, Eng ’14. The former member of the men’s track and field team now works as a network and security engineer. Former men’s golfer Ryan Prickette, Eng ’12, is in Rockwell’s associate engineer leadership development program.

The multiple Marquette hires are no coincidence. Mike Dubinski, a senior human resources representative for the global supply chain division of Rockwell Automation, says student-athletes have characteristics Rockwell looks for in employees. “I think that being a student-athlete, they develop a natural sense of leadership,” Dubinski says. “It’s definitely an attribute we like to see in our employees. We like to see employees own their own careers and win opportunities for themselves rather than wait for things to happen for them.”

Dubinski also sees former studentathletes excelling at problem-solving and handling pressure.

“I think they’ve had success in the past,” Mau says, referring to other former Marquette student-athletes who were hired

by Rockwell. “And I know, at least when I’ve had my discussions with HR, they kind of say, ‘Oh, you’re another student-athlete.’

It seems like a major draw for them.”

The Rockwell example shows that networking among former student-athletes can be valuable.

“I think the M Club can be a tremendous resource to our student-athletes as they go through the process,” says Scholl.

“They’ve all done it themselves. They’ve left here, gone out into the world and learned what it’s all about. They can really help each generation of Marquette student-athletes.”

Though their prime playing days may be behind them, former student-athletes cherish the friendships forged and lessons learned in competition. “I’ve been pleased with where I’ve been so far in my career and where I see it going,” says Ruiz, “and I think I owe a lot of that — like 90 percent of that — to my experience with tennis and college athletics and what they taught me.” m

OUR MEN AND WOMEN IN BLUE – AND GOLD

BY CHRIS JENKINS

NEW BEAT When Marquette University Police Department Officer Daniel Hernandez walked into the room, the woman burst into tears.

She was caught shoplifting. Hernandez asked the store manager what the woman was trying to steal. When he heard the answer — diapers — he figured there was more to the story. Hernandez talked to the woman and learned she was out of money and needed diapers for her son. Instead of writing a ticket or transporting her to jail, Hernandez drove her to a local shelter to pick up a pack of diapers and a list of other resources available in the community. “I think we look at the totality of the circumstances,” Hernandez says. “Is she going to learn from me citing her with a retail theft citation for whatever amount? Or is she going to be appreciative and understand: ‘OK, I can’t do that, I have a list of resources where I can go for help and I really appreciate what the police did for me.’ I think that’s the better route.”

Hernandez is working a new police beat, one formed after a year of planning and training of officers. Marquette’s former Department of Public Safety became a commissioned police force in May 2015.

Campus and the surrounding area are now patrolled by sworn police officers who are able to write tickets and make arrests. But MUPD officers spend far more time building relationships and diffusing situations by talking to people.

“I think when you look at the daily activity of a police officer, it’s not mostly writing tickets and it’s not mostly arresting people,” says MUPD Chief Paul Mascari. “Those are certainly tools, and if something rises to the level of that, then we have those tools. But it’s about being seen. It’s about being a resource.

We’re out there for the community. We want people to be comfortable asking a police officer for assistance.”

Mascari notes many of the department’s newly sworn officers worked in the Department of Public Safety well before it became a police department. “They know the culture of the university. They believe in the mission of Marquette,” he says. “They believe in our guiding values. Yes, they sometimes have to write a ticket or sometimes they might have to arrest somebody, but they have a great deal of discretion. We know that we just can’t arrest our way out of a lot of problems. It takes a community to solve those problems. If we’re seeing an issue, we want to work with the community to solve that issue.”

Commissioning a department

M

arquette leaders began considering establishing a commissioned police force after former Wisconsin

Gov. Jim Doyle’s 2007 Task Force on Campus Safety report recommended that private universities and technical colleges should have the option to employ sworn police officers, as do state public universities. In 2014, Gov. Scott Walker signed a bill allowing Marquette to create a university police department.

But before moving forward Marquette sought feedback from students, faculty, staff and community members, along with local law enforcement and state government agencies. In January 2015, President Michael R. Lovell made the decision official.

Mascari and 18 officers were sworn in May 1, and another 17 completed the statemandated 520 hours of training during the summer. The new safety efforts build on an already existing infrastructure that includes 700 video cameras, 450 Blue Light emergency phones located around campus and the neighborhood, and an advanced command center.

The biggest difference today is that officers are able to issue citations and make arrests themselves. “I think we’ve always said the biggest benefit about it is efficiency, the service that we can provide to the Marquette community,” Mascari says. “Prior to becoming a police department, our officers

would respond to something, and then we’d have to wait for the Milwaukee Police Department to respond. So if it’s a busy night for the Milwaukee Police Department, it would take some time. That’s tying up their officers for a period of time. We don’t need to have that happen.”

MUPD officers have access to a computer system that tracks criminal background information. They now are authorized to make traffic stops — a significant step forward for pedestrian safety. “Those types of incidents are the ones that get people hurt,” says MUPD Officer Jennifer Shevey, who joined the department in December 2014. “We are getting out there, and we are doing some of those traffic stops. And people that had been zipping through some of these streets are now slowing down going, ‘Oh, I could be pulled over, too.’”

Mascari and his officers are very much in tune with national conversations about the use of force and racial issues in police work.

“I think that again goes back to building relationships,” Mascari says. “I think a lot of problems that you see nationally may have been brought to the surface by a particular incident. But when you look at that, there were problems with the relationship to begin with. If a police department has a good

says. “How is that going to be different? How are the connections between students and officers going to be different? I think that the officers have really taken a proactive stance on addressing those questions and going through a substantial amount of training.”

Hernandez, a U.S. Marine, served two tours in Iraq, his second tour as a sergeant leading a platoon. His duties there included meeting with village leaders with an interpreter, hearing them describe their needs and doing what he could to help with anything, from getting access to water to building schools.

Hernandez puts those soft skills to work on campus. Students occasionally shout his name to say hello when he is out on patrol.

He was once called to unlock a door for a student, and the student asked Hernandez if he remembered citing him for a past offense.

The student told Hernandez that he was suspended for a semester, which he used as a wake-up call to get his life in order. Now he was getting ready to graduate. “Yeah, that made me feel OK,” Hernandez says with a smile.

In 2012, Hernandez rescued two people from a burning bus. He also has helped talk people out of suicide attempts. “You just talk to them and get the Milwaukee County Mental Health Department or Marquette Counseling Center on the phone, just talk them down and you’re able to help them out,” Hernandez says. “That, to me, is fulfilling.”

Shevey worked in law enforcement for 27 years. She came out of semi-retirement for the chance to join Marquette’s department.

“I’m here to protect and to serve,” she says.

“That’s kind of what I was born to do.

“My daughter is college age, and some of her friends go to school here,” Shevey says.

“So I interact with some individuals that I know, and being a mom of a 20-year-old, I know the mindset of college-age kids, and I can deal with them and I can speak to them like they are my own daughter.”

Wallace’s advice to fellow students? “Get to know the officers. They’re all people, too, with families. They really are committed to making sure that you are safe and you have a positive experience at Marquette.” m

Charlie Kubly, the youngest of seven children, was a typical all-American boy. He loved music, having fun and joking with friends.

He loved to travel and visited places like Maine, Colorado and Iceland, learning to ski and sail. He worked on earning a pilot’s license while developing a small mail order business that catered to college students.

He was the life of the party, always ready with a joke and a smile.

But his gregarious personality hid a secret: Charlie struggled with depression.

CHARLIE WAS EMBARRASSED by the disease

and used his personality to hide his pain.

“We called him the greatest actor of all time because he never showed any signs,” says his mother, Billie Kubly, describing how her son coped with depression. “He was the handsome, bright, funny kid that everyone loved, and he brought a lot of joy to our family.”

Billie realized something was wrong after Charlie came home from college. She found a bottle of St. John’s Wort, a natural herb supplement available over the counter at any drugstore. Billie knew that it was sometimes used as a natural remedy to combat depression. “When I found the bottle, I asked him straight out: ‘Do you think you have depression?’ He said ‘Yes,’’’ Billie remembers.

Charlie’s parents helped him access treatment. Despite five years of psychological care and a variety of antidepressants, he couldn’t find relief from the incapacitating disease. Charlie battled the agony and

what he described as physical pain for years, until he took his life on Oct. 27, 2003. He was 28 years old.

Depression affects nearly 15 million people in this country or about 7 percent of Americans, according to the National Alliance for Mental Health. It’s a misunderstood disease, one with a biological basis that is thankfully coming into sharper focus.

Charlie’s parents, Dr. Michael and Billie Kubly, are determined to reveal the truths about the disease and erase the stigma surrounding depression. They founded the Charles E. Kubly Foundation to honor their son. The public charity is devoted to improving the lives of those affected by depression.

Michael and Billie took another step this year when they made a $5 million personal gift to the College of Health Sciences to establish the Charles E. Kubly Mental Health Research Center at Marquette.

The Kublys have been searching for a more-effective pharmacological option for the treatment of depression. When they saw the innovative work being done in the College of Health Sciences, they recognized that the potential for a breakthrough exists within

the college’s collaborative neuroscience model. They hope their gift will accelerate the pace of discovering new and better medications for depression and related mental illnesses and help remove the stigma that can be a barrier to treatment.

PEOPLE WITH DEPRESSION often suffer

from overwhelming feelings of sadness, stress and loss of interest, but they can also suffer physical symptoms such as nausea, fatigue, insomnia and chronic pain.

“We’re increasingly recognizing the impact of mental health on many aspects of physical health,” says Patricia Schroeder, R.N., administrator of the Milwaukee County Behavioral Health Division. “Certainly this is not a surprise as it reflects the wholeness — the mind, body and spirit — of a person.”

Billie saw this firsthand in her son.

“Nobody talks about the physical pain of depression,” she says. “When someone can’t get out of bed due to the disease, it’s not just the mental anguish. There are severe physical symptoms, painful symptoms, that their body is going through.”

There is continued need for outpatient mental health services, particularly for underinsured populations, and there is also a need for new pharmacological treatments, according to Dr. John Schneider, chief medical officer for the Milwaukee County Behavioral Health Division. “There have been no novel medications brought to market since the late 1990s,” Schneider says. “Everything in the past few years has been so-called ‘me-too’ drugs.”

According to Dr. John Mantsch, chair of the Department of Biomedical Sciences in Marquette’s College of Health Sciences, this is exactly the reason why the research taking place here — and the Kublys’ transformative gift — are necessary. “Though currently approved antidepressants work in a subset of patients, their effectiveness is often limited and many depressed individuals don’t respond to them at all,”

says Mantsch. “The result of treatment failures in these cases can be catastrophic.

Suicide rates are very high in treatmentresistant depression.”

It can take up to six weeks for a medication to reach its full effect, and if the dosage or drug isn’t a good fit, a person can lose six weeks of treatment time. After repeating this cycle three or four times with no success and no relief, depressed individuals can become so frustrated that they quit treatment altogether.

“It’s an on-and-off cycle,” Billie says.

“If the drug doesn’t work, they have to try a new one. If the side effects are bad, they’ll stop taking it. And when it does work, once they start feeling better, they’ll often stop taking the medication.”

Even if a person does find relief, antidepressants can have adverse side effects, including nausea, insomnia, anxiety, weight gain and headaches, many of which mirror symptoms of the actual disease. According to a National Institutes of Health study, nearly 40 percent of patients taking an antidepressant report side effects from the medication. And people who need to stop

taking medication for any reason may experience severe withdrawal symptoms.

“Progress in treating these conditions requires the identification of new targets for medications,” says Mantsch. “Unfortunately drug companies are unable and insufficiently motivated to conduct the basic research necessary to accomplish this, leaving much of the burden on academic researchers.”

According to Mantsch, a co-founder of Promentis Pharmaceuticals Inc., a company that develops treatments for several central nervous system disorders, real progress requires a research environment that can meet three key criteria: The environment must value and foster basic science that can be translated into new treatments. It must encourage scientists to creatively pursue quality science beyond chasing grant funding and publication numbers. And it must be strategically constructed of talented neuroscientists with complementary research interests and technical expertise capable of working as an interactive team.

It’s no accident that is precisely the kind of research environment found in the Department of Biomedical Sciences, which currently comprises a dozen neuroscientists specializing in neuropsychiatric disorders.

A principal innovation at Marquette is the complementary approach, says Dr. William Cullinan, dean of the College of Health Sciences and director of the Integrative Neuroscience Research Center.

Cullinan points to the strategic addition of faculty scientists with expertise in neurological systems as the defining characteristic of the center. “A key to making progress in understanding the basis of mental illness is to assess the brain’s motivational/ reward system, its emotion-related circuitry, and the cognitive pathways that govern executive function and impulse inhibition,” he says. “These three systems overlap substantially, and by focusing our efforts at their interface we hope to pinpoint

targets for more effective, faster-acting biologically based treatment strategies.”

Dr. Peter Lake, medical director of the non-profit psychiatric Rogers Memorial Hospital and board-certified psychiatrist, calls the Marquette model “inspirational to all of us on the front lines who help patients and families in their daily battle with mental illness and psychiatric disorders.”

The Charles E. Kubly Research Center will bolster the College of Health Sciences’ research infrastructure and provide new tools to study questions that previously couldn’t be asked because of technological constraints. The gift also will fund the addition of neuroscience research faculty.

“We often think of depression as a single entity, when it is likely a collection of conditions with common symptoms, each of which has a slightly different neurobiological distinction,” Mantsch says.

Billie often quotes a Centers for Disease Control study that forecasts that by 2020 depression will be the second-leading cause of disability after heart disease.

She understands there is much work to be done and urges parents to talk to their children and acknowledge any sign or symptom of depression, no matter how small.

“Keep a line of communication open with your children, and keep the conversation going,” she says. “Don’t be afraid to bring up depression and educate them on the symptoms to look for in themselves and their friends. I only wish I had known to have that conversation. The more we can talk about it, the more we can erase the stigma and find better treatments.” m

Fettuccini fun

“Some people left me in the dust, while others liked to stop and take pictures,” Brey says.

“At times, I found myself navigating a foreign country on my own.”

Friendly locals helped Brey stay on track most of the way. She recalls only one minor missed turn. “We made the right city, wrong church — there are a lot of churches in Italy,” she says with a laugh.

The most melodic moment came while visiting the Frasassi Caves in Genga. Brey and her friends stumbled upon a fellow tourist who began singing opera in Italian. “His voice bounced up and down along the walls of the cave, like being in a concert hall,” Brey says.

Biking 36 miles a day left Brey’s legs feeling as wobbly as fresh fettuccine. Luckily it was a cinch to refuel in the carb capital of the world. “It’s the ideal trip to Italy,” she says. “You eat what you want and then bike it all off.”

Cyclists munched on croissants and sipped cappuccinos each morning before hitting the Italian hillside.

Each rider was given a map, handwritten directions — and a prayer.

1974

Voice of Chicago

I

Steve Bertrand, Jour ’85, has a simple

career-building strategy: Always say yes.

It’s what he said to applying for a job with Chicago’s WGN Radio after graduation, despite having spent most of his time at Marquette preparing for a career in TV. He said it again when WGN’s sports department asked him to produce the weekly Chicago Bears football broadcasts and interview then-coach Mike Ditka after each game. “I wasn’t a sports guy,” he says.

“If you have the chance to do something, do it,” advises Bertrand.

That philosophy led him to hosting Meet the Writers audio interviews for

five years for barnesandnoble.com. He interviewed some of the world’s top writers — including Stephen King, who called it one of the best interviews he’d ever done.

In addition to his WGN news anchor duties, he hosts the highly successful Steve Bertrand on Books podcast along with the Business Lunch. He has also created Steve Bertrand Travel, organizing and sometimes leading European fundraising vacations for charities and other organizations.

Could he be called an entrepreneur? “I’ve never been a business guy, and that may be the silliest thing I’ve ever heard,” he says and laughs. “But I guess I have become a bit of one.”

Bertrand, who received the Diederich College of Communication 2012 Communicator of the Year Award, was honored in May with a spot on WGN’s Walk of Fame. “Marquette gave me a foundation and an anchor — and a skylight to what was possible,” he says. — Becky Dubin Jenkins F I N D O U T M O R E Join the conversation at facebook.com/stevebertrandonbooks.

James Hintzke, Bus Ad ’76, a Wisconsin CPA with 30 years of experience and owner of James L. Hintzke CPA S.C. in New Berlin, Wis., in 2007 started the SeniorCare Resource Group of Wisconsin. This year, he opened a second accounting office in Rhinelander, Wis., where he provides tax preparation, tax problem resolution, and business, retirement and elder care tax services.

Quantum leap

Dr. Holly Bevsek, Arts ’89, teaches at the Citadel.

Her students march across the quad with M-14s slung over their shoulders.

In her class they hunker down to learn chemistry.

Bevsek is chair of the chemistry department at one of the nation’s most prestigious military colleges. Students abide by a strict honor code that forbids cheating. They live in “barracks” (dorms) and wear uniforms to class. Bevsek is one of three female department chairs at the college, which didn’t admit women students until 1995.

Her interest in chemistry skyrocketed during a quantum chemistry class at Marquette with Dr. David Schrader. He helped her see her potential beyond the bench. “I was horrified of public speaking before that class,” Bevsek admits. “The chemistry stuff didn’t scare me. It was the life stuff.”

A few oral presentations helped Bevsek gain confidence. She earned a doctorate in chemistry at the University of Pittsburgh and also met her husband, a fellow physical chemist. “Our job hunt was awful,” Bevsek laughs.

After stops at the University of California, Berkeley to study with a Nobel laureate and at Michigan State, the couple completed their crosscountry tour when both landed jobs at the Citadel. In the lab Bevsek researches the reactions between mineral dust in simulant soil from Mars and trace gases in the atmosphere around Mars. She also teaches. One of Bevsek’s favorite classes is junior-level physical chemistry, which she describes as “a happy blend of physics, calculus and chemistry.”

Our Q&A with Governor Walker EDITOR’S NOTE

Here are samples of various opinions alumni expressed regarding our Q&A with Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker in the summer issue.

I just received my issue of the alumni magazine. About your puff piece in Scott Walker, I am very disappointed. To refer to Walker as an alum does a disservice to everyone who worked hard to receive a degree.

I feel you are diminishing my degree. I also feel Mr. Walker stands for values that were not promoted by the Jesuits and educators at Marquette.

It [is] evident Mr. Walker does not support social justice or the value of higher education, and learned nothing in his time at Marquette.

KATHLEEN JENNINGS MOROZ, ARTS ’65

The communication college at Marquette teaches its students to be open-minded and take every opportunity to do an interview that has a potential audience, so I was happy to see such a wellarticulated and unbiased piece.

Being a decision-maker has its perks but it also has its burdens. In an ideal world, everyone would get what they want, no cutbacks, no layoffs

LUKAS BAKER, COMM ’15

Like many others who have already responded, I am disappointed the Marquette Magazine ran this interview right here, right now. Why not years ago when he first became governor? By running this article now, I think you unnecessarily added Marquette and Walker’s lack-of-alumni status into the political ring.

We do not need Marquette to be part of his presidential bid and/or to provide any credibility about his college experience. Scott Walker did not graduate from Marquette.

Period.

PAM MCNAMARA, BUS AD ’79

Now that you have run an article on a student running for president who did not graduate, “Oval Office Aspiration,” how about following up with another candidate for any office who did graduate?

I remember students who worked at one or more jobs and burned the midnight oil just so they could graduate.

Also maybe find a candidate who believes in full and adequate funding for public universities.

this fall. Besides visiting the campus and going through Preview Weekend, it was fantastic to become more familiar with the university and its alumni through your magazine.

The first issue we received absolutely blew me away. I was very impressed by the physical quality of the magazine, as well as the impressive articles within. I especially enjoyed the article “Leader of the Pack.”

It was exciting to read about the innovation going on at Harley-Davidson and to know that Jeff Richlen, Grad ’07, was helping forge new territory in this sector. I also was captivated by Kimberley Motley, Law ’03, and her intelligence as well as her bravery in the article “Trying times.” Her life work reads like something out of a movie. Reading about the 2015 All-University Award recipients and their accomplishments and dedication to Marquette University was very inspiring. I also found it heartwarming to peruse the many alumni weddings, births and anniversaries in “Class Notes.”

I look forward to seeing what the next issue has in

MARIA YOUNG, PARENT OF FRESHMAN STUDENT

Football and Andrie memories As a follow-up to Colin Oakes’ remarks in your last issue about Marquette football player George Andrie, I have an anecdote.

In the 1960s, when I was running the Cleveland alumni chapter, we used to award trophies to famous Marquette athletes who came to Cleveland for a game “for helping keep Marquette nationally famous.” We would have a program for the visiting player at his hotel the night before the game.

We held one for Andrie, who came with the Dallas Cowboys to play the Cleveland Browns. He brought along his future Hall of Fame teammate Bob Lilly. When we gave Andrie the trophy, he said: “I have been in every major city in the U.S. for games, and no one ever so much as shook hands to welcome me. And you guys

Her home has been ransacked.

Her tires have been slashed and her car pierced with bullets.

She has been accused of being a spy and even of running a brothel. What about that time somebody threw a grenade at her office? “It didn’t go off,” says Kimberley Motley, Law ’03.

For one of the few Western lawyers trying cases in Afghanistan, all of that is just the price of doing business.

Motley is often the first contact for a Westerner who gets in hot water in Afghanistan, and she is a lifeline for Afghan women who have been sold into slavery or are victims of unimaginable domestic violence.

What is Motley doing in a dangerous, notoriously corrupt country fighting legal battles in languages she doesn’t speak? She is passionately upholding the rule of law in a place where it isn’t valued — a topic she addressed in her recent TED Talk, which was viewed online more than 600,000 times.

“I want to raise the bar of rule of law, period,” Motley says during a longdistance telephone interview from her office in Kabul. “To show people that they do have laws that are there to protect them, that they need to use these laws and that they have the power to do it if they so choose to do it. That’s what’s really important to me. I’m trying to set good precedent in this country through these cases. And I’m trying to show them that their culture allows for this, allows for women to be protected.”

She was inspired to attend Marquette Law School after her father lost a legal dispute with his employer, one that left his family struggling to get by. Later Motley was working as a public defender in Milwaukee when she was recruited as a contractor for a U.S. State Department justice-funded program to train defense attorneys in Afghanistan.

An interesting sidelight is that the two players each had a can of beer that they kept out of sight because the son of Coach Tom Landry was also in the dining room. The players said the son was a chaperone who would report them for drinking beer before a game.

TOM ROHAN, JOUR ’43

EDITOR’S NOTE

In this issue’s “Campus Replay” column, read about how students in the Diederich College took the initiative to relive a bit of Marquette football with George Andrie. Their efforts resulted in the documentary film “Doomsday Warriors: The Story of George Andrie.”

The horn player at the far right in that picture is Anne L. Szcygiel, a friend of mine, who graduated in speech in 1975.

VIRGINIA KEYSER REINMULLER, ARTS ’75

Remember ’50s grads I felt left out in the summer 2015 issue since you listed no 1950s graduates.

I am an August 1950 alumna with a bachelor’s degree in philosophy, later changed to arts and sciences.

I was an honors student at Cudahy High School. …

I started my freshman year at Marquette in September 1946. I had a college preparatory program for four years but was the only senior graduate who actually entered and finished the four-year college degree with Marquette classes. It was done with encouragement from Rev. Peter A. Brooks, S.J., and my job with the Wisconsin Telephone Co., by which I paid all my living and college expenses since I was 16 years old.

Fall 2015

It is fall in Wisconsin. Newspapers statewide devote countless column inches to “leaf reports,” steering tourists toward dazzling rural routes. Campus takes on a mellow ambience with colors covering the sidewalks — a red carpet, rolled out and ready to welcome all comers.

Amid the buzz of mid-semester exams there is an undeniably reflective quality to the season. Students and staff stare unselfconsciously at this beauty, simply beholding what is there.

The experience of beholding freely is core to the spirituality of St. Ignatius that informs so much of how we teach and learn at Marquette. Ignatius was not only adept at beholding the world around him, but also at beholding the artistry of God in the most intimate recesses of his soul. Contrary to many wisdom-wielders of his day (and ours), Ignatius did not find meaning by chasing an externalized set of expectations about who he ought to be. He did not look for God in signs or the comfortable assurance of being admired by others. Rather, he opened — slowly at first and then ever wider — the door of his innermost self, where he found God’s desires waiting for him.

Desire is a sensuous word not typically associated with a life of faith. Who are we to have desires? Aren’t we to rise above our own desires to become the people God wants us to be? Ignatius draws a distinction between the petty desires that can send us careening like pinballs from choice to choice, continually unsatisfied with ourselves, and the deep desires of our hearts that lead us toward love, generosity and kindness. These deep desires, when they are well-discerned, lead us toward God’s desires for us.

Ignatian spirituality invites us to be courageous in exploring our desires. This requires reflection, both intellectual and spiritual. It is easy to rush to judgment about ourselves, dodging the stillness necessary for the mind to calm and the breath to slow. At certain points in our lives, our desires are evident to us; at others we barely have the energy or attentiveness to desire anything at all. Ignatius patiently counsels at such moments simply to pray for the “desire for the desire” and not to be too hard on ourselves in the interim.

What is it we really want in life? Acknowledging that we have desires can make us feel vulnerable and awaken the realization that we are not as self-contained as we might like to think. Seeking our deepest desires requires that we be surprisable.

What we long for most may be quite different from what we have been telling ourselves we should want — or do — or be.

Botanists remind us that the crimson and honey colors in autumn leaves have, in some sense, been there all along. They are simply masked by the chlorophyll that makes the foliage look green in the summertime. Only when the chlorophyll dissipates are the warm hues revealed, waking us to a hidden beauty. So, too, the deepest desires within us are invitations to the arresting and attractive love of God, who accompanies us in every season of our lives. That is something to behold.

Marquette’s President’s Society recognizes and honors dedicated benefactors whose annual giving demonstrates significant commitment to the university.

THE PRESIDENT’S SOCIETY

Membership in the 2015 President’s Society results from gifts made between July 1, 2014 and June 30, 2015 and includes pledge payments, cash, matching gifts, stock, giftsin-kind, and realized planned and estate gifts.

Society members receive special benefits, including public recognition through the Honor Roll, which also can be viewed online at marquette.edu/honor-roll.

HONORING GENEROSITY Our annual President’s Society Honor Roll allows us to recognize and celebrate the alumni, parents, friends, corporations and foundations who invest in the education of our students through their generous annual giving to Marquette.

The lasting impact of our President’s Society members is profound. During the past year, these dedicated benefactors contributed $66 million to support the university, a remarkable 18 percent increase over 2014. About one-third of that amount, $21 million, is dedicated to supporting student scholarships — a top university priority. In all, the society’s more than 1,900 members provided much-needed support, fueling advancements and excellence in innovation and entrepreneurship, faculty and student research, athletics, art and culture, campus safety, and the many other aspects of university life that create a transformational student experience at Marquette.

It’s a privilege for me to publicly thank the individuals and organizations listed here. They support our students, faculty and staff as we pursue excellence in all we do as we strive to be of service to God and our human community.

Dr. Michael R. Lovell President Marquette University

Rick McDermott, Eng ’91, Law ’94 “The McDermott family legacy at Marquette runs deep, and the importance of giving back to the university is something that was instilled in me very early. I have enjoyed supporting Marquette in a variety of ways since I graduated. Marquette not only helped shape who I am as a person, but also has contributed to the amazing life with which I have been blessed.

It gives me great pride to support young people today through my alma mater.”

Rick’s generosity to Marquette each year targets the university’s top priorities, including student scholarships.

Dominic, Bus Ad ’89, and Maureen (Chute), Arts ’91, Camden “Our student experience at Marquette was so memorable and shaped how we live our lives today.

Supporting our alma mater so that current students, specifically student-athletes, can enjoy a Marquette experience, is a big part of how we give back.”

Dominic and Maureen dedicate their giving to Marquette Athletics through the Blue & Gold Fund. Equally important to them, given Dominic’s experience as a golfer while at Marquette, is their ongoing fundraising support of Marquette’s golf program.
