Why I chose Bucknell: "Academically, Bucknell is the perfect fit for me because the school of management embraces a liberal arts approach to a well-rounded education. In terms of rowing, I was attracted to Bucknell's emphasis on sculling in the fall as well as the positive atmosphere and camaraderie among the rowers."
