Muslim Life at Bucknell
Muslim Life at Bucknell is facilitated by the Chaplain for the Muslim Community and the Muslim Students Association, both of which are located in South Campus Apartments, Davis Hall. Together, we provide the space and opportunity for Muslim students, faculty and staff to explore their faith in a safe and nurturing environment. Through a variety of programs, events and opportunities for interfaith engagement, we help promote increased literacy about the Islamic faith and Muslim cultures/practices among members of the Bucknell community.
Regular activities include Friday congregational prayers, weekly in-home meals, halaqas (discussion groups) and movie nights.
