Freshman seminar had its good and bad parts. I really appreciated the opportunity to meet with my peers and peer mentors once a week. We all learned a lot from each other. It gave everyone a good chance to unwind and help each other out with school. However, I did not like the fact that we had so many assignments. Maybe some of the stuff we had to do should be done during the meeting time to make it easier on our schedule. But the workshops were all really educational and enjoyable. I plan on attending more next year. They specifically are able to help me understand something that I am interested in in a very short amount of time. They are free, very easy to register for and made for students. I am happy that I had the opportunity to experience all the types of programs Baruch has to offer, and hopefully I will further take advantage of these programs and benefits over the course of my education at Baruch. I learned a lot about the culture of Baruch and people’s attitudes towards school and also life. My peer mentors were also great because it was really nice to hear feedback and encouragement from students who have some academic experience at Baruch under their belt. They taught us what to do if we had problems with the professor, how to succeed in classes, opportunities to do better and get help in school, and much more. Robert and Jenny were always writing emails or suggesting different programs to go to around school. Even though it was sometimes annoying to take time out of my day to go to this class I ended up really enjoying it and appreciate the time I spent in Freshman Orientation. Thank you everybody for the great time!
