We are Bucknellians.

We are a community of doers, of innovators and earth-shakers more than 54,000 strong. 

We blaze diverse and diverging paths, but we're united by a shared identity and quiet confidence shaped at Bucknell — an understanding that what we do, matters. 

In every corner of the globe, we are making change happen in our companies, communities and the world.

Mod Memories

Collage of Mods Memories

This winter, Bucknellians joined one another in reflecting on the unforgettable experiences and memories made across Route 15 in the Mods. Whether you said your farewells by sharing your memories, submitting a photo as part of the special compilation or participating in the building placard auction, we thank you for keeping the memories of Mods alive as we close one chapter and embark on an exciting new one! Don't forget — you can monitor daily progress on the construction of four new Bucknell West residence halls by viewing the live webcam.
