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 50th anniversary celebrations, see the website: /eop-50th-anniversary/
Building on last year鈥檚 theme, 鈥淒emocracy in Troubled Times,鈥 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:
鈥&苍产蝉辫;&苍产蝉辫;Increased wealth disparities nationally
鈥&苍产蝉辫;&苍产蝉辫;Ballooning higher education cost
鈥&苍产蝉辫;&苍产蝉辫;Mass incarceration policies
鈥&苍产蝉辫;&苍产蝉辫;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.
