There is something special about Marietta College. It’s a distinct feeling you get as soon as you step on campus that lasts a lifetime. It’s hard to describe, but can be attributed to the incredible, supportive community all over campus and throughout The Long Blue Line.
Marietta relies on its alumni to help keep this feeling alive by asking them to give back their Time, Talent and Treasure. Can we count on you to help?
