Regardless, we take security issues seriously and have a Department of Public Safety, which provides a 24-hour emergency dispatch service. Escort services and emergency call boxes are located throughout the campus. Like all colleges and universities, we are required to publish crime statistics, which can be found on Bucknell's web site. The faculty's first priority is teaching, which means Bucknell courses are never taught by teaching assistants. Faculty conduct research with students and advise them on academic and personal concerns.
Housing is guaranteed all four years and the majority of our students live on campus.
Students have a wide variety of housing choices including residence halls, apartment-like suites, and small houses. Students usually have little difficulty enrolling in classes. Faculty, academic deans, and the Registrar's Office work with students to ensure they meet graduation requirements in a timely fashion. You are strongly encouraged to visit Bucknell at your convenience. Bucknellians from the West enjoy having a number of students from their hometown area on campus but also getting to know students from all over the country and the world.
