Advice to Baruch College

If I were given the opportunity to tell the people that run Baruch how to improve the school using methods of New Media, I would first tell them that maybe a few blogs ran by administrators and professors could help newcomers to the school. A blog ran by the advisement center could help students choose which classes to take in the upcoming semesters, which classes close up the fastest during registration, etc. There could also be blogs written by current students and alumni on student life. These could go from telling students where the best spots for food and hanging out around the school are, or giving advice on how to handle the college workload, which many students (including myself) have problems with. I think the start of school-ran blogs could help students prevent the confusion that comes with the rat race that they call CUNY.

I agree with your idea of creating an blog site for incoming students planning to attend Baruch College,yet i believe that it can also guide current students who have not been able to navigate through this school system and this can give them insight on the culture in and around the school
