Welcome to the Alliance for a Better Bucknell's website. Who are we? We are active alumni, young and old. We are concerned friends of Bucknell. We have one thing in common--a desire to improve Bucknell.
That desire is strong enough that we have invested our money and our time to form this venture. This is truly a labor of love for all of us. We come not to criticize, but to make a positive difference for our alma mater and its students now and future.
Alumni are traditionally sources of money to their school. We have something different to offer--practical, real-world experience and the perspective it provides. One of the first places we would like to apply our energies is in providing input to the Common Learning Agenda review currently in progress.
There are many reasons why we believe this is an important place to start. As you read the materials on this site, we hope you too can get a sense of what drives our passion on this topic. If you share our concerns and aspirations for Bucknell, we hope you will take a role in this effort as well. Come join us, and together we'll help all the others striving to move Bucknell forward!
