RECOGNIZING ACADEMIC DISTINCTION
UNIVERSITY MARSHALS
Each year the University selects a number of outstanding undergraduate
students to serve as marshals for campus events and lead academic
processions, especially commencement ceremonies. These full-time
students serve an important role for the University by assisting
at plays, lectures, concerts, and other public occasions. New
marshals are chosen at the end of their freshman year from those
who have compiled an outstanding grade point average. Marshals
are honored in the fall of their sophomore year at a luncheon
hosted by the University president and serve for the remaining
three years of their FMU career. Marshals wear distinctive blue
blazers with the University logo.
