Bucknell Bucket List

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Bucknell chapter.

I hate to bring the subject up, but graduation is looming on the horizon.  With only one month left to go seniors, it is now or never on getting the true Bucknell Experience.  There are only five more weekends to party it up in the big city of Lewisburg before all of the fun comes to an end.  In case you need some help, or you think you’ve done them all already, here is a the Bucknell Bucket list for the Class of 2012.  
 

  • Have brunch at the golf course.  Tip: you can use your declining dollars.
  • Shake your tail-feather at Nelly on April 13th.
  • Go get a freez!
  • Listen to Frank Abagnale talk about Catch Me if You Can on April 9th.
  • Play volleyball in one of the sand courts on campus. It will make a great base tan for senior week!
  • Go to a spring sporting event.  (Track, Baseball, Softball, Lacrosse, Tennis, Golf just to name a few)
  • Run the stairs at the track.
  • Go to Rooke Chapel for Easter Services on April 8th.

  • Visit the Samek Art Gallery.
  • Visit your freshman hall for a bit of nostalgia.
  • Take pictures riding on the Bison.
  • Eat cheap hamburgers and fries at the Fence in Montandon.
  • Persuade a professor to have class outside.

Make the most of yourself, for that is all there is of you.
