Bucknell University - L Agenda Yearbook (Lewisburg, PA)

Page 10 text:

By preparing for publication a detailed statement of her objectives as a University, Buckuell proved once again that she is a leader among the country ' s educational institutions. As stated in the catalogue, the purpose of Bucknell is to provide an educational program with three major goals: the student ' s development of the qualities and abilities ess itial for effective living in a democracy, his acquisition of the knowl- edge and skills necessary for professional and personal success, and his growth as a well-rounded member of society, with social consciousness, spiritual insights, and an active interest in the affairs of the community, the nation, and the world. The 1952 L ' AGENDA attempts to illustrate the accomplishment of Bucknell ' s objectives by a selective choice of material. Under the main headings — adminis- tration, classrooms and the faculty, extra-curricular activities, sports, and the events of every-day living — we show how the University strives to attain her three goals. We present Bucknell as we know her — Bucknell as we will remember her. » » ♦ V ••
