“What the culture and community of Marietta gave me was the ability to grow, fail, and take part in so many things. I only have about two speeds in my life — all or nothing — and I tend to lean into the 'all' portion. Taking part in so many things taught me how to prioritize and balance.”

-Brittany Curry ’15, Chief of Public Affairs at 9th Reconnaissance Wing

“Marietta College was able to take me, a blue-collar high schooler from Ohio's Amish Country, and instill in me the liberal arts skills that have allowed me to become one of PwC's go-to contacts in data analytics technologies in the Midwest.”

-Caleb Hester ’16, Tax Digital Accelerator at PwC

“Because of the close relationships that develop between the professors and students at Marietta College, the students are afforded greater opportunities to collaborate with their professors on a 1 to 1 basis.”

-Marshall Kimball, Associate Professor of Music & Chairman of the Edward E. MacTaggart Department of Music

"Whenever I'm teaching a lab or working with graduate school colleagues, it's very clear who has a liberal arts background and who doesn't. Those of us who do are able to think outside of the box."

-Derek Hennen ’12, Ph.D. student in the Marek Lab of Systematic Entomology at Virginia Tech
