Marquette University

Det 930 at Marquette is a small Jesuit-university detachment serving one of the largest cross-town consortium footprints in Wisconsin AFROTC — the program spans Marquette, UW-Milwaukee, Milwaukee School of Engineering, Parkside, Carroll University, Carthage, Wisconsin Lutheran, Milwaukee Area Technical College, Alverno, Concordia-Wisconsin, and Mount Mary University. That breadth means the cadet corps is more socially and academically diverse than any single-institution program. The Jesuit emphasis on servant leadership and intellectual rigor creates an officer quality that commands note. Milwaukee's proximity to Chicago provides access to O'Hare Air Reserve Station and Scott AFB without being inside the overwhelming Chicago metro. The program's small class size makes personal cadre mentorship the primary development mechanism.
