Marquette recognizes the deep hurt and fear experienced by many on our campus and around the world as a result of the Israel-Hamas war. It is all our responsibility to care for each other and create a culture of belonging. Especially during difficult times, Marquette is committed to being a place where students are taught how to engage in challenging conversations and to dialogue respectfully with those who have different opinions. This page encompasses the various services and policies that may be relevant while navigating this period.
There is no place on Marquette’s campus for antisemitic or anti-Muslim rhetoric that would make anyone feel unwelcome or threatened. Anyone who experiences or witnesses harassment or discrimination on campus is urged to report it by submitting a confidential bias incident report online so that it can be appropriately addressed.
