Being a Bison means that you have the rare blend of physical skills along with the drive and passion needed to succeed at the highest level of collegiate athletics. www.BucknellBison.com Being a Bison also means that you are a scholar fi rst and foremost. You believe that values associated with Division I athletics, such as time management, leadership, teamwork and grace under pressure, are but a part of a well-rounded college experience. At Bucknell, our students, faculty and staff pride themselves as national leaders in uphold- ing the scholar-athlete ideal that balances a challenging academic program with the demands of successful Division I athletics.
