I do not know where I see myself in the next three years. I could very well be an avid member of the Baruch Scholars, or using my experience here to drive success elsewhere. In either instance, the values instilled in each and every one of us in the program will always remain. I will be diligent in my work, timely in my execution, and graceful in my efforts altogether. The staff here has been more than generous in their excitement to push us forward in our academics and worldly ventures. My friend Nadia and fellow Scholar has taken the initiative to create her own club at Baruch through the help of staff members and faculty. MD has worked alongside Professor Hahn and the MakerHub staff to get across the concerns our communication class had and more importantly he stood up for us and voiced his opinions. Constructive criticism and overall scholarly camaraderie were displayed that day. Dr. Locke who has offered her experience in psychology to fuel our curiosity in things most of us never even think about. She even inspired one or two of us to major or minor in her very field. She has offered me person guidance as well when things have seemed to not have an outlet. Then there is Mr. Medina whom each of us has had extensive meetings with him to offer guidance and help schedule our spring semester classes. And let us not forget Tamara; she has offered us her time, support, and appreciation for all things “Freshman.” She is there to pull you aside and ask if everything is going okay and if you need help, she is always there…just what we all needed to hear. Seeking guidance from those around you, especially at Baruch seems to be the essence of the school itself. A fast paced commuter school with faculty with hearts that are understanding and pure which make you slow down and breathe. The angst from the stressors of classes and the demand for high grades can easily be balanced with help. Sometimes we forget that we are not alone after all.
