“... The Pursuit of Athletics in College Need not interfere with a fellow’s studies, and if you give a boy a well-developed body his brain will get the benefit of it.”

— christy mathewson, in his book won in the ninth, written in 1910

The term “student-athlete” signifies some- thing extraordinary on the campus of Bucknell University. 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. Being a Bison also means that you are a scholar first 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 chal- lenging academic program with the demands of successful Division I athletics. Being a Bison means that you have pledged to be a student- athlete in the purest sense. In doing so, you will be rewarded for a lifetime.

BBucknellucknell BBisonison AAthleticsthletics A National Model in Promoting the Scholar-Athlete Ideal

Bucknell Athletics is fi rst and foremost a student-centered organization, one that strives to be a national model when it comes to operating by a true scholar-athlete model. At Bucknell, student-athletes’ academic programs are their fi rst priority, and providing a competitive Division I athletics program only advances the mission, values and residential learning goals of the university. To that end, the Department of Athletics and Recreation proactively seeks ways to assist student-athletes in their daily academic pursuits. Below are just some of the student-athlete support programs currently in place.

FACULTY ATHLETICS REPRESENTATIVE: The faculty athletics representative (FAR) is a member of the faculty or administrative staff who is designated to represent Bucknell in its relationships with the NCAA and the Patriot League. Bucknell’s FAR is Mitch Chernin, Professor of Biology. The FAR can enhance the student-athlete experience by promoting a balance between academics, athletics and the social lives of student-athletes, which affords them opportunities to enjoy the full range of collegiate experiences available to students generally.

SIDELINE COACH PROGRAM: This program is a truly unique initiative in Division I college athletics, and it involves the invitation of a member of the faculty, administra- tion, staff or community by one of Bucknell’s 27 varsity teams. The participant has the opportunity to discuss the overall program with the respective coaching staff, including practice preparation and strategy for the upcoming contest. The sideline coach attends a practice session and an actual intercollegiate competition, where he/she is introduced to the team and gains rarely seen insight into the relationships that exist between player-coach and player-player. The purpose of the Sideline Coaches Program is to foster a better understanding by the faculty and administration of the roles played by coaches and athletes in the university’s competitive intercollegiate athletic arena.

ACADEMIC ENHANCEMENT CENTER: In the Fall of 2005, the Department of Athletics opened a study/computer lab for student-athletes on the concourse level of Sojka Pavilion. The center is outfi tted with computers, a laser printer, four television monitors and a projection unit with computer, VCR and DVD player. Additionally, the study lab can be used as a meeting place for group projects, tutorial area or just a secluded and quiet study space before or after practice.

LAPTOP PROGRAM: The Department of Athletics owns a number of laptop computers that may be signed out by student-athletes for use on away trips.

STUDENT-ATHLETE ADVISORY COMMITTEE (SAAC): Representatives from each varsity team comprise the SAAC, which is designed to enhance the total student- athlete experience by promoting opportunity, protecting student-athlete welfare, and fostering a positive student-athlete image. The Committee is an invaluable resource for promoting communication between athletics administration and student-athletes; promoting communication between athletics and campus-wide administration; providing feed- back and insight, as well as soliciting responses into department issues and proposed NCAA legislation; building a sense of community within the athletics program involving all athletics teams; organizing community service projects and efforts; creating a vehicle for student-athlete representation on campus-wide committees; serving as a collective voice of campus student-athletes; and disseminating information to the student-athlete body.

OTHER PROGRAMMING: The Department of Athletics, through the identifi cation of outside speakers and periodic “Brown Bag Luncheons,” thrives to enhance the quality of the student-athlete experience as well as to educate student-athletes on a variety of issues that may affect them throughout their collegiate career. Some recent topics of interest have been alcohol, nutrition, body image, hazing, sexuality, diversity, career development, study skills, religious life and gambling.

Facilities 40-13-11 record in Lewisburg since 2000 Whether it is the varsity student-athlete, the intramurals participant or the fi tness buff looking for a nice workout, members of the Bucknell community benefi t from a wide array of fi rst class athletics facilities. The completion of the Kenneth Langone Athletics & Recreation Center in 2003 highlighted a facilities boon at Bucknell. Sojka Pavilion, Kinney Natatorium and the Krebs Family Fitness Center are the centerpieces of the sparkling indoor facility, nicely complementing the renovated Davis Gym and Gerhard Fieldhouse, all of which lie under the same roof. Christy Mathewson-Memorial Stadium is the largest of the outdoor facilities, with 13,100 seats surrounding the FieldTurf playing surface and recently resurfaced 8-lane track. The West Fields complex also has a new look with the recent installation of Graham Field, featuring an AstroTurf surface for fi eld hockey and women’s lacrosse, and its neighboring Varsity Soccer Field, a three-year-old natural-grass facility constructed with a modern drainage system. Brand new in 2007 was an impressive covered grandstand featuring all chair-back seating, along with the accompanying support facilites (locker rooms, athletic training room, press box, concession/merchandise stand, etc.) that service both fi elds. The next phase of the West Fields improvement project includes similar stadium venues for baseball and softball. Also located on the western end of campus are numerous grass fi elds for intramurals and recreation, as well as Bucknell’s own highly regarded 18-hole golf course. The Bison rowing team has its own boathouse located about 10 miles south of campus, along the scenic Susquehanna River. The quality and location of these venues makes Bucknell one of the most sports-friendly campuses in the nation.
