Academic Year 2024-25

I write to share this summary report of the fall meeting of the Board of Trustees, which took place on campus from Wednesday, Oct. 23, through Friday, Oct. 25. I am grateful to those who planned and took part in these important conversations, including faculty and staff members who participated in the fall meeting, particularly Faculty Chair Erik Lofgren, as well as the Bucknell Student Government officers who presented to the trustees.

Good evening, members of our distinguished faculty and staff. And welcome, Bucknell University transfer students and Class of 2028! It’s a great privilege to be here as you stand on the threshold of profound opportunities for life-changing transformations.
