Wall of Excellence
MARQUETTE -- In 2005, Marquette Senior High School began the tradition of their Wall of Excellence, honoring outstanding alumni.
Tuesday they built on that tradition with the induction of two new honorees.
Class of '79's Mark Harbick and Graveraet Class of '39's Frank Richardson were both added to the wall.
After attending Marquette Schools, Harbick became an accomplished architect in San Francisco and New York.
Richardson gave back by becoming a Marquette school administrator.
Both say they owe their success to their education.
"Marquette was the best and is - but for me, was - the best place to experience my childhood. It was still the small town atmosphere," said Harbick.
"Pay attention to your teachers," added Richardson.
Both inductees were presented with plaques to be hung in the atrium near the school's gymnasium.
