o IVER ITY A CLEARLY defined plan for the decade of the Soaring Sixties was adopted by Mar- quette University in November, 1960. This is the Marquette Plan which calls for 545,- 000,000 within the next ten years, a plan that will further Marquette's commitment to intellectual and moral excellence. Two facets of the plan are faculty en- richment and research. Both will play a major role in determining the quality of edu- cation in the Soaring Sixties. The faculty forms the core of a college or university. They are the ones who set the criteria of excellence for the school, not the campus facilities, nor the athletic teams. They are the ones who direct the education of the whole man. who give life to the text- books, who advance as well as communi- cate knowledge. Marquette recognizes that the quality of its faculty ultimately determines the excel- lence it can achieve in the next decade. Dur- ing the next ten years, Marquette must re- tain its present educators and attract young talent to the faculty. The Marquette Plan calls for 53,000,000 in the next five years to further this aim. Research is one of the most important activities of a college or university. It is one which is constantly encouraged, as much on the part of the undergraduate and graduate student as on the part of the faculty. Every university strives to create an atmosphere of research. Marquette is no exception. The Mar- quette Plan calls for 510,000,000 to be used in research programs and projects dur- ing the next decade. The university now receives about 51,000,000 each year from various government and foundation grants in support of its program of faculty re- search. If Marquette is able to carry out these facets of the Plan during the Soaring Sixties, education will also soar. Henry Steele Commager, historian. voiced Marquette's hopes this way: If we plan wisely now, education may become the chief preoccupation of our society. It is hard to think of a better one.
