Missouri Southern broke ground on a $14 million residence hall complex, made inroads on projects such as the new baseball stadium and end zone facility and announced an improved budget for the coming fiscal year that includes raises for all university employees. Marble worked to boost confidence among faculty and staff members and also welcomed previous university president Dr. Julio Leon back to campus for the announcement that the Health Sciences Building would be dedicated to him.

He earned a master’s degree from Pittsburg State University in 1986, and his doctorate in higher education administration with an emphasis in finance from the University of Nebraska in 2006.
