A􀄺er several years of teaching and coaching, he joined the corporate business world and accepted a position with IBM. While working in the Central PA area during the mid-1980s, he reconnected with Shippensburg University when he enrolled in the college's MBA program and quickly found that his corporate business experience was highly valued by the students, faculty, and administrative staff. Bucky became a frequent public speaker, motivator, and advisor for the John L. Grove College of Business.
