"Pioneer Pledge" To Replace College Creed
The Marietta College Creed may be getting a completely new face next year. A new “Pledgeâ€Â has been proposed to replace the Creed currently in use. If President Jean Scott approves the changes, the new pledge could be ready for Matriculation this fall.
The proposed changes have been in development for five semesters. A faculty member on the campus life committee showed how a similar pledge at another university helped make them stronger and give them an identity.
Vlad Grecu, a senior and member of the campus life committee, believes that the proposed Pledge could have the same effect on Marietta College students. “More than anything, it gives identification to what a Marietta College student is. It shows what character we want to show through the people in our college.â€
