What is your overall opinion of this school?
I think Bucknell is just the riht size - big enough that there is a big variety of classes, people, and point of views to get to experience alot of new things, but small enough that its not uncommon to have classes with 8 people on them. I spend most of my time working at the Weis Center/ for Performance Services and I love my job. Bucknell is somewhat of a college town (since alot of students like to rent houses in town and frequent a few of the restaurants on main street), but you can mostly get anything you need on campus, so it's not really necessary to venture into town much. Though I don't know very much, from what I've heard and see I think the administration spends too much money on things that don't necessarily benefit the students (fancy dinners for alumni and other guests) and to make ends meet tuition is now going up, making us the 3rd most expensive school (tuition wise) in the country. There are also alot of disappearances within the administration (people who either "leave" or are fired) and general turnaround without much explanation (bordering on secrecy) of why.
