The Center for Alumni, Family & Philanthropic Engagement aims to provide all of you — our alumni, parents and families — with opportunities to connect with Bucknell in many ways: through programs on campus, at events in your region, and by celebrating Bucknell's past and supporting its future. Our engagement opportunities mirror Bucknell's commitment to learning, innovation, passion and purpose.

You can step back into the classroom by learning about medicine, social entrepreneurship, the humanities and much more through our in-person and online events with deans and faculty. You can help students prepare to be future leaders by offering job opportunities and industry expertise. You can steer your own professional journey by taking advantage of career programs and networking opportunities.

We invite you to join us on a journey from past to future.

The World Needs Bucknellians

Be the way forward

The problems that define the next century won't fit in one discipline. And the leaders who solve them will have learned how to think across boundaries in a place where the liberal arts and professional programs collide. Through the Be the 'ray Campaign, Bucknell is making a $1 billion investment in its students — in those who are here now, and those who will join every class that follows.

Five bold commitments are transforming what a Bucknell education makes possible. Learn how you can be the spark for the brilliant waiting to be believed in.
