Year started at Bucknell:

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:
Basketball games at Sojka Pavilion.
What I recommend to do while visiting Lewisburg:
Take a filmic excursion to the Campus Theater to watch what might be awesome film in a theater built in 1941. (If you arrive early they have couches to sit on.)
People would be surprised to know that:
Despite being from the great state of Alabama, I'm not a big fan of Lynryd Skynryd's "Sweet Home Alabama". I prefer either Alabama's "My Home's in Alabama" or John Prine's "Angel from Montgomery".
