Section LC01

I went to the center for academic advisement at Baruch College. I asked few questions today in room, NVC1-107. It was a great experience you could have. Each student has to get 10 checks for different subject. I asked adviser questions who comes from health center, finincal aid, athletics, Cuny BA program, Student life, dgree works audit, Bursar’s office, testing & Evalution and also writing center. They are very patient and go over my questions. The most intersting is that i got a free “Gilette”, maybe because I went there so eariler. Now, I have known the exact the place for writing center and heathy center.

Last week, on Thursday, i attended the Club fair in the gym of Baruch. This fair allowed me to see the great variety of clubs Baruch has to offer, and how the members of this clubs are committed to their association. There were clubs that supported a particular nationality, such as the Ecuadorian and Polish club, there were others that had to do with religions, there were the fraternity and sorority clubs, the ones that had to do with something artistic, such as the radio and dance team, and so on. There was a moment in the fair in which there was dance performances, some people also played “limbo”, and throughout the whole event, there was a dj. Going to this fair was a great experience because it allowed to be to see how diverse Baruch can be. It provided me with a lot of information and made me realize that I definitely want to join a club.

There was a workshop held on September 17 so I decided to go. Arguably one of the stupidest decisions that I made that day because the whole floor this event took place on was totally chaotic. Quoting one of the supervisors, “We are not use to this big crowd” hence resulting into the shortage of these folders. As I as unable to get one of those folders I was unaware of what the workshop was about. Later on that day I got the information from one of my peers. At the end of the day it was able of acquire some useful information regarding what classes to take in the future and important steps one needs to take in order to move towards his or her desired Major.

I went to the Open House of the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance(V.I.T.A). The workship didn’t work out so smoothly. At first, they had some kind technical diffcults, they couldn’t get their projector to work, so we have to move to another room on the 5th floor. Although it wasted about 50 minutes, but i gained a lot of useful informations about how to become a Volunteer Tax Preparer, what are the requirements of it(no minimum GPA or experience required,but you need buy a VITA txtbook in the baruch bookstore,to prepare fot the test), and what benefits will you get as a  Volunteer Tax Preparer(  you can gain EXPERIENCE on tax return, IRS certification) It’s a wonderful oppturnity for people want major in accouting to gain experience on their field.

For work shop this week, I went to club fair on last Thursday. There were so many people that I spent a lot of time in line just for getting in to gym. I expected that there would be numeral interesting clubs and it did not disappoint me. I saw so many different kinds of clubs there but it did not really help me actually. Because too many people crowded there, I could not find the funny clubs which I might want to join. The most useful thing I got was the little map of subway that I could bring it conveniently. To choose a club, maybe I should just ask my friend for help. It may be much helpful than the club fair.
