Welcome
Welcome to the Madonna University 75th Anniversary website. Please visit the site often for news, special events, photos, or to share a memory on our blog. We hope you’ll participate in as many anniversary events as possible.
  
Brief History
When Presentation Blessed Virgin Mary Junior College, a liberal arts institutuion, was established in 1937, the Felician Sisters could not have foretold how their commitment to Catholic higher education in the Franciscan tradition would have resulted in 75 years of spiritual enrichment, technological advances, campus enhancements, tremendous successes and accomplished graduates. The first full-time student body were 18 students living at the Felician Motherhouse. Today, some 4,200 Madonna University students pursue rigorous academic programs world-wide, engage in service learning projects that change lives, and set records and good examples as scholar athletes.
