Bucknell Magazine

The award-winning Bucknell Magazine is published quarterly for more than 50,000 alumni, parents, faculty, staff, students, friends and donors. It aims to engage its readers, inspire pride in the University and cultivate a sense of shared experience and purpose.

ADVANCING EQUITY

In June, the Supreme Court ruled that colleges and universities can no use longer race as a factor in admissions, prompting higher education institutions across the nation to amend their policies. While Bucknell's processes will change, our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) will not. Learn how our University's robust resources and DEI initiatives will continue to expand access to higher education and support students of all backgrounds.

Where do Bucknellians go after graduation? Read about the future plans of five fresh Bucknell graduates who are prepared to make an impact — from designing cars at Toyota to researching pediatric therapies at a children’s hospital to pursuing an advanced degree at Harvard.

In this issue, you'll also find:

The speakers who will participate in the 2023-24 Bucknell Forum, including actress and activist Jane Fonda and Washington Post columnist George Will

Letters to the Editor Policy

Bucknell Magazine welcomes letters to the editor addressing topics covered in the magazine. Although criticism of the University and its policies is acceptable, no letters containing potentially libelous statements or personal attacks will be printed. 

The editors reserve the final decision to publish and edit any letter — there is no guarantee that all letters received will be published.

All letters must be signed. The maximum length is 300 words. The editors reserve the right to edit letters for clarity and space. Writers may be asked to submit revised versions of letters or to approve editorial changes made by the Bucknell Magazine editor. After two issues, the debate on any topic will conclude. Some letters may be disseminated only online. Views expressed in this magazine do not necessarily reflect the opinions of the editors or the official views or policies of the University.
