Break-in at Mods under investigation

William M. Fierman

News Editor

A break-in at a student apartment at Bucknell West is being investigated by Public Safety.

Nicole Bakeman ’16, a resident of Mod 18, stepped out of her bathroom around 1 p.m. on Oct. 1 and found a man standing in her living room by the porch door.

“He saw me and just booked it out,” Bakeman said.

Bakeman later described the man to University Public Safety Officers as a white male in his mid-thirties, wearing a backwards baseball cap.

“We were keeping our Mod open because it is Big-Little Week,” Bakeman said, referring to the annual tradition in which upperclassmen members of sororities leave gifts for new associate members with which they are paired. She and her roommates will now lock their doors.

Nothing is missing from the apartment, roommate Alexa Healey ’16 said.

“Maybe if I wasn’t there they would have taken something,” Bakeman said.
