The academics at Bucknell are excellent. The professors are great and classes are small. The academic atmosphere is stimulating and all I hoped it would be.

But the social atmosphere is at the level of middle school, with an overabundance of over-entitled, judgmental east coast people who would be challenged to correctly locate states and cities west of Pennsylvania on a map.

There is little diversity, and many students are openly racist and narrow minded, as they unapologetically make remarks denigrating people who are different from them, including blacks and people from foreign countries.

After a few years, it becomes a stifling, mind numbing atmosphere of privilege gone wrong.
