Section BEG1B

i read the first couple of pages from the handbook and found it pretty helpful. it gave me a better understanding of blackboard and sacc tutoring. i also learned that there is a writing center you can go to and get help with essays so that should be pretty helpful

Hello BEG1b,

    I just wanted to do a quick recap of the important things to remember from today’s class. This is also for any of you who missed the class. REMEMBER ATTENDANCE and BEING ON TIME IS ESSENTIAL for passing the class!

The goals of today’s class:

• To welcome students to the College and ease you guys into conversations with each other.
• Establish my role as peer mentor and your roles as students in the course and at Baruch College.
• Allow you guys to understand College Culture and what to expect in your first year.
• Class guidelines and expectations.

You received your Planners today, and as I stated in class, they are so important for you to use and bring to each freshman seminar class. I showed you some of the important pages in it for your freshman seminar experience such as pages 33 and 35. I also asked that you all take some time to go over the first 50 or so pages during your free time so that you can get more information about Baruch.

We also had some fun getting to know each other in a speed meeting round which we will continue quickly at our next session.

Lastly, we went over Baruch Culture.

Blog about your first day of classes! Share what surprised you, what you liked, or look forward to…

The Freshman Convocation thing was alright. The poet scared me a little and Teresa Parker made the Convocation lively and entertaining. The thing that I didn’t like was the schedule being messed up and half of the group was waiting on the 10th floor to see if anyone was coming back to see if we were there. We had our own little tour though in the Library and we went to the park to talk, so it was good. I look forward to meeting new people. (:

Here is a flyer with all of the welcome week activities. I hope you all take advantage of them and have a great time while making new friends and getting more familiar with Baruch! Continue reading →
