A Letter to The Warrior

From a letter recently sent to The Warrior: Marquette’s Independent News Source:
“Dear Editor,
My husband is a graduate student at Marquette, and recently brought home a copy of “the Warrior.” I was so impressed with it as a student organized publication that I just had to both congratulate and thank you. It is so refreshing to see a student-led publication that desires to be faithful to the Catholic Church and notes the authority of the magisterium. Despite the failings of some Marquette administration and staff to be consistently faithful to the church due to the dominating ideologies of relativism, you seek to present the blessed voice of truth. Well-done, and keep up the great work!
“Dear young people, do not be content with anything less than the highest ideals! If you have an ardent desire for the Lord, you will steer clear of the mediocrity and conformism so widespread in our society.” -Pope John Paul II”
The Warrior has already raised $143 for their “Warrior Free Press Fund” in order to purchase new equipment and support the growth of the only independent, student-run voice on Marquette’s campus. There is a long ways to go towards their goal of $3000. If you can support the cause, click on the ChipIn button (on the righthand sidebar) to make a secure credit card donation or click here.
If you are an undergrad who enjoys The Warrior, consider a $5 gift or click here to send this post to friends and family who could support the cause.

Promote Free Thought at Marquette with The Warrior
Written by Brandon Henak on April 16, 2008 – 10:32 am -With the ratio of liberal to conservative professors in some university departments reaching as high as 30 to 1 these days and blatant instances of bias in the classroom coming to light, an independent, free-market voice on campus is more important than ever. The Warrior is that voice on Marquette’s campus.
The Warrior is a completely student-run, biweekly publication on Marquette University’s campus that in 2007 earned more Milwaukee Press Club Awards than the official school-funded paper. It is a 501(c)(3) organization incorporated in the state of Wisconsin that supports it’s publishing with advertising revenue.
The most important thing about The Warrior though, is its values. Posted on the wall of the office and used everyday, these values are central to The Warrior’s voice on campus.
Warrior Goals and Values:
1. MU-student centric
2. Hold student government accountable
3. Expose academic abuse
4. Encourage meritocracy
5. Rally for administrative transparency and efficiency
6. Preserve the free market and diversity of ideas
7. Exercise and promote fiscal responsibility
8. Cherish Marquette’s Catholic Identity
9. Project a vision of a great Marquette
The Warrior is going strong but, it is in need of new equipment and supplies to continue to promote these values on campus and share knowledge with other independent papers across the country. They have launched The Warrior Free Press Fund campaign to raise $3,000 by May 14th and, with new technology, you can see the difference your donation is making through a progress bar their site, http://www.thewarrior.org. If you’re an undergrad, consider a $5 donation and click here to send this post to your parents. Every little bit helps!
Please make your tax-deductible donation (by credit card, debit, or Paypal) today by clicking on ChipIn button above or clicking here.
P.S. Your donation will immediately push the status bar closer to our goal of a stronger independent voice on campus!
P.S. If you are interested in advertising, making a special gift or sponsoring a specific purchase, please email The Warrior’s Business Manager, Katie, at business@thewarrior.org.
