Our annual conference is dedicated to the memory of Steven A. Marquez (C’79), a former DP Managing Editor who, tragically, left us in 1987 at the young age of 29. Steven, a proud Philadelphian, was known for his dedicated coverage of local communities while working at the Philadelphia Daily News. His strong ties to the DP community led him to be elected to the DP Alumni Association Board of Directors shortly before his passing.

WELCOME TO MARQUEZ

OCTOBER 21ST - 22ND

Welcome to the 37th Annual Marquez Journalism Conference, brought to you by the Daily Pennsylvanian Alumni Association. Our objective is clear: reuniting DP alumni currently active in journalism, media and business, with current Penn students. At this event, students will have the chance to acquire practical insights, receive valuable advice, and explore new ideas within a relaxed and interactive atmosphere. We are thrilled to invite ALL members of the DPAA community to Marquez as we aim to ignite a new generation of journalistic aspirations.
