College Town Aspirations Meet the City of Festivals

This month on Marquette on the Move, WTMJ’s Jeff Sherman welcomes Marquette University President Kimo Ah Yun, Rose Howard, and Sarah Pancheri for a conversation about the unique connection between Marquette and Milwaukee. The group explores how the city’s festival culture, volunteer spirit, and sense of community create opportunities for students to engage beyond campus and become active citizens of Milwaukee. They also discuss the impact of mentorship, the value of first jobs and internships, and recent investments supporting Marquette students, including a new endowment honoring former Brewers owner Bud Selig. The episode wraps with Summerfest memories, plans for the summer ahead, and reflections on what makes Milwaukee such a special place to live, learn, and connect. 🎙️ The Upswing is presented by Horicon Bank.
