Steve Bucknam `67, Civil Engineering

Headshot of alumni Steve Buckner

"My favorite memory is the collegial relationship that our civil class had with our professors. They prepared us for an immediate entry into our professional careers, always had an open-door policy and access to help us mature as young students. Our undergrad degree took 4 1/2 years to complete, with us taking other liberal arts classes concurrently with our engineering program. That exposure prepared us to quickly grow in our careers into management and leadership positions in both public agencies and private firms.

I will never regret attending Loyola and be forever grateful to the University for preparing me for a career of service to others."
