Through the community service project, we got to learn about many of the resources at Baruch that are available for us to take advantage of. For one, there is the library session that we did during one of our freshmen seminar classes that introduced us to idealist, which is where we found the organization we wanted to work with. In addition, we were also introduced to the library’s enormous data base. This project gave me the chance to look into donating more than money back to aid the society but also my time and effort. Without the project, I can’t really say I would have allotted time to volunteer. I am grateful that it has reminded me of how fortunate I am, and pushes us to give back to our communities.

I can not believe my first semester at college is almost over; I don’t even know where all my time went. Throughout the semester, I saw myself improve a lot on my time management. I felt like everything I have dedicated my time to was worth my while and I know will not regret any of it. The coming years, I hope to continue to take advantage of all that Baruch College and the Scholars Program offers me. In three years, I hope to be very involved in school as well as outside of school. I would like to have joined many different organizations and taken many steps in my career. I hope I would have found the right path for me in terms of my profession. And most of all, I hope to be in this Scholars program with every single one of my classmates and watch everyone excels together.
