- This workshop explained how a job fair works and provided advice to succeed.
- I selected this workshop because I might attend job fairs in the future and I want to be fully prepared. It did not take me outside my comfort zone because it was a large audience with all kinds of people.
- This workshop met my expectations and I would recommend it to another student because I learned a lot about job fairs and I was also taught some tips.
- I learned how a job fair works and how to communicate myself to the person that is looking for candidates. I learned that it takes a lot of effort to stand out in a positive way at job fairs.

The Globalization of Religion: Mobile People and Traveling Spirits
- The Globalization of Religion: Mobile People and Traveling Spirits
- a) Community/Global Awareness
- 12/01/09 4:00-5:00
- This workshop was a lecture to inform the audience about mobile people and traveling spirits.
- I selected this workshop because my friend and I had planned beforehand to attend this one. It took me outside my comfort zone because it was filled with professors and higher level students.
- This workshop failed my expectations and I would not recommend it to another student because the speaker read off her paper in an non-interesting and boring way.
- I did not learn anything from this workshop. It was hard to understand the speaker and the pace at which she spoke made it even harder to catch what she was saying.

3. 10/8/09, 1230-2
4. We were supposed to learn how to maintain relationships better with loved ones and friends.
5. It didnt really take me out of my comfort zone. We did another icebreaker, and made friends with everyone in the room when we started.
6. I guess I would recommend this workshop to another student who is having difficulty acclimating to college life. It had useful information to help the social transition.
7. I learned a few things that one shouldn’t do when meeting someone for the first time, or early on in their relationship. They also gave us a website which I looked at that had some good information.

- It was suppose to show us the importance of first impressions and how to manage the way people perceive your image.
- I picked this workshop because it was the only career exploration workshop left. It took me out of my comfort zone because it was a small group and the presenter noticed that I was not talking to someone new and made me move and talk to this guy sitting behind us.
- I did not have any expectations because I just wanted to get it over with but overall it was fun and I would therefore recommend it to another student.
- From this workshop I do not think I learned anything but it was fun just to talk to other people in Baruch and find out why they decided to go there.
