Conference with Prof. Hohl

I have not met with Professor Hohl for my outside essay. I guess he decided that those with B or above did not need the conference, although he is more than willing to hold one upon request.

For those who had conference with him, please tell us if he was helpful?

Library Workshop (ENG2100)

The class attended a workshop at the Newman Library with Librarian Lisa Elise. She introduced the CUNYPlus search, RefWorks for citation, etc.

I find sources such as the Economist, Associate Press, NY Times useful for current events. Sometimes, I use google books instead of buying the actual books if the text is available i.e. I read Waverly Jong and Partial Remembrance on google books so I didn’t have to buy the Conscious Reader.

Enrichment Workshops

For this week, there are many workshops for Academic Enrichment and Career Exploration. I have put up this website with all the workshops listed as a comment last month but I’m not sure if any of you got it.

The dates may change as Wook as mentioned. But so far, they are correct. Hope this will help those who haven’t completed their workshops yet! =]

Baruch College known for diversity

There is a pretty interesting article about Baruch that a friend sent me. But since we are freshman we got time but its never too early to study or prepare for the future. Because what you do know affects your future and where you will go.

Some Projects.

So the guys and I were talking the other day about having group projects. Apparently other LC’s are really improving on bonding ideas. Anyways, Ke suggested maybe we should have a Kareoke night, possible 10-all of us at once. I said maybe we should get a few Wii’s and get a Smash Bro. Brawl Tourney going. Darius, well he just stood there.. anyways the idea of making a youtube channel full of of random video’s from our LC came up. Have you guys ever seen College Humor on Youtube? well the idea is that we could make something similar, just a little project to keep us connected long after the LC splits up.
anyways just a few ideas, to sum everything up, we could:
-Have a Kareoke
-Laser Tag
-Bowling
-Youtube Channel (probably means starting a new club)
-Watch Paranomal, or cloudy with a chance of meatballs. which i’m down for either or both.
-Walking tour of manhattan. *Cough* nevermind..
anyways, that’s all we got so far, but we really better start working on something just for teh sake of giving this LC thing the good college try and getting something back like life long friends, or someone to talk to 10 years from now.
