Favorite thing about Bucknell:
I love the aesthetic sensibility of the campus which combines notions of scale, symmetry, proportion, and sheer beauty to create this feeling that practically sings, “This is what a college is supposed to look like!”
Favorite place or activity on campus:
Screaming myself hoarse during basketball games at the Sojka Pavilion.
Favorite thing about Lewisburg:
I love watching movies at the Campus Theater. It offers the perfect antidote to the modern, faceless multiplex (and reasonably priced concessions).
What I recommend to do while visiting Lewisburg:
You must get ice cream at the Lewisburg Freez!
People would be surprised to know that…
I invented the concept of PI while waiting in line to get tickets for the 1980 Sugar Bowl.
