Section LC11

Reflect on your freshman seminar experience.  What did you like/ dislike about the course?  Is there anything you would change/ something you would not change about the course?  Did you feel this course helped your transition become a smoother one (don’t worry, no hard feelings so you guys can be honest!)  How did this course change your view/ affect your freshman experience?

Minimum: 300 words.  Just to reiterate, this blog can fulfill one workshop blog if you are missing one and/ or it can also fulfill the global/ community service requirement since we were unable to go to a community service event together as an lc.

Plays were never my thing, I always found them to be extremely boring, and often I would go to sleep in them.  I don’t  exactly remember the last time I went to a play before this one, but it was probably sometime in my middle school years.  The play centralizes over the idea of feminism, as Nora borrows money to make a “Doll’s House.”  The play was good overall, but I feel like the characters were who they were; the characters didn’t seem very genuine.  Moreover, some parts of the play seemed rather exaggerated.  All in all, the play was still pretty good, and brought back a feeling of nostalgia from my middle school years.

This event itself was not very productive. The objective was to collect coats and toys, but in the end we had nothing. It was a nice chance to see the diversity in the school with all the people walking by. The event itself was thoughtful but according to a custodian that passed by, the boxes weren’t big enough and the event wasn’t advertised well enough.

This is definitely another interesting workshop, in a unique way. I think that the last time i had actually been to a play was probably at least 5 years ago. Part of the reason I liked this workshop is because it brought back the feeling in an odd way. Other than that it was an all-around alright performance. I hadn’t expected much from it but it seemed that it brought back some memories. I definitely underestimated the work put into it, the actors definitely put a fair share of time and effort but I have to say it did feel a little corny. But still all in all it was a cool workshop and I give my props to the arts department at Baruch, and I actually would not mind going to another theater performance but I probably would prefer a different theme.

on September 24th, there was a club fair which i attended. even though i was not interested in joining any clubs i was very surprised such a small school like Baruch had an abnormally large number of clubs and fraternities. most tables had food and games to play trying to lure students to join. there was dancing and it was a very fun scene. what i realized from this is the diversity factor of this school. i have never seen soo many different people from different parts of the world gathered in the same school. it is something very surprising and unaccepted the free food and entertainment was good. i also went to the Actuary Clubs table and asked for information.
