Over the past 8 months, I have bought new clothes, accumulated more junk, and brought new “necessaries” from home each time I visited. The last I want to think about during the stress of finals is how I am going to fit my entire room into the back of my mom’s car. As a graduating senior, I have acquired some tips that will make the packing process easier, faster, and less...

Reliving prom can sound like the ultimate nightmare to college-age adults. Those awful “silk” dresses in dreadful hues, the never-ending picture sessions, the awkward slow dances with your date, and the craziness of the after-parties. So when I found out that Bucknell hosts its own version of prom each spring, I honestly was a bit skeptical to see how it would turn out. Especially...

The Flying Bison is taking flight for its first lunch service on April 26th and hopefully will become a fixture on Bucknell’s campus for years to come. Bucknell is following in line with...

When an ABC leaves the frat-ful scene at Bucknell and enters into the real world, she is introduced to a new and exciting land. With unbelievable clubs (without a layer of beer on the floor!), pulsating music, potent cocktails in a rainbow of colors, and a gaggle of foreigners ready for an insane night, she is in for a wild time. But how far is too far? Without parents, public safety, or...

Anything that starts off with a clip of a young, handsome Leonardo DiCaprio is destined for greatness. However, no member of the audience could’ve predicted the emotional power, constant hilarity, practical application of the lecture given by Frank Abagnale on April 10, 2012.

As I finish up reading dull essays about public policy, long novels written hundreds of years ago, and other seemingly pointless essays in preparation for finals, all I can think about is the ever-growing list of books I want to read this summer. So many exciting books keep coming out, but college leaves me no time to read any of them. If you feel the same way, hopefully you’ll...

Don’t get me wrong. I love the cute and classy East Coast preppy look that we Bucknellians have mastered. However, I feel that every once in a while, I want to branch out and be able to wear something around campus without looking at another girl and seeing her wearing the same, exact thing.
