Journal Entry #3

College Students often refer to grand sources of information for projects, essays, and anything that requires external knowledge. Baruch offers an amazing amount of accessible information through its library, e-reserves, internet website, and databases. However for my community service project, it was external from the school. I felt as though my whole project was about interacting with people other than colleagues and teachers. The only resources that I used were the databases. The databases are an extensive source of information that incorporates the news and information from that past with that of the future. It is possibly the best of the resources that Baruch provides. My understanding of this project helped expand my view on how people can help others. It it with organizations like City Harvest that people prosper and can start anew and live.

I have not joined a club, however I plan on creating one, the Baruch Fencing Club. This was inspired through my eight years of fencing, and to compete with Hunter, I believe it would be a great experience to have. If I start this new club, my Resume will look fantastic and i’ll have an edge on the competition. I hope to inspire others to strive for greatness when fencing. Hopefully if the club does get permission to start, it can eventually develop into an actual sports teams and compete with major school like NYU, Columbia, and Penn State. Hunter is the only CUNY school that has a Fencing team and I would like to change that, considering that it is our rival school.
