Harry Dana
I’m the type of person who is on the relaxed side but I like to succeed. My name is Harry Dana and I’m that person who won’t stop until I succeed. Whether it’s in buisness or school I wont let anything stand in my way. I am a little bit of procrastinator but when the time comes that I need to buckle down I usually pull through.
As a freshman in college there is a transition period that in other colleges might be tough, but I Baruch I know that the faculty is helping out the students for the next couple months in order to help our transition period be a little easier. But I’m learning a lot and I’m gaining those tools to succeed in the years to come. Although I do have a couple of concerns about Brauch college.
My top three concerns in Baruch collage is, firstly it being more or less a commuters collage. I’m worried that i’m going to get bored of the atmosphere. I am also worried about the classes that I am going to have to take in order for me to get my business degree, like math for example. But I know if concentrate hard on it I will succeed. And my last concern is the fact that there is very little school spirit. When there is school spirit it brings joy and excitement to school.
Going to High School is quite different then being in a College. My surroundings are far more diverse then a small town high school likes Magen David Yeshiva Celia Esses high school. With a soaring total of only for hundred students. Everyone is practically the same. Baruch College teaches me many new things about other people and other cultures, it is far more diversified. Teaches me the tools I need to succeed in any occupation. Especially in this day and age where there are many different cultures. It also different in the ways the professors treats their students. The professor student relation is way more professional. Especially that I came from a private school where I had multiple classes which each professor.
Before I went to college I came from a small bubble in a Brooklyn community. After one full year of attending Baruch College I am going to be a totally different person in so many ways. Baruch College really taught me how to manage my time differently. It gave me the opportunity to make my own classes and schedule while at the same time give me the opportunity to make certain times in my week for my job, personal time, and study time. I am able to manage my day much better and much more efficiently because of Baruch College. Procrastinating in a word in my book which I forgot about because College taught me how not to. College also taught me how to understand different surrounding other then my own. I am able to get a long with so many different people with so many different backgrounds. Rather then just one background in my small private high school.
