Tell us how your experience at Baruch College has lived (or not
lived) up to your expectations. Has it exceeded your expectations? How well do you think your first semester went?
My expectations of Baruch College were completely met 100%. I knew coming to this college that its on the most boring colleges in the world, but I made a conscious choice to place a weight on future success rather than current fun. I would like to say that im sticking to it, but to me honest, I’m not even sure. After talking to people who have been the the college program and those who didn’t, Im seriously considering to not continue my education here. It seems to be that a good education is not worth as it used to be in the real world. Im really not the type to enjoy meaningless unmotivated learning, it really just stresses me out. I’d much rather be out there networking and making money that way. You only live one life, and your only young once, I don’t see any reason to waste it. I feel as if you meet enough people, your opportunities of finding work , and work that interest you is a lot easier. This realization came to me, when a NYU graduate messaged ME for a bartending position, why waste your youth, hard work and effort if its not guranteed to get you anywhere. Im not the education type, I could not ever in a million years see my self going to school passed 22, and in this society you need graduate school to get anywhere. I’d much rather live a stress free life now making a little less money over my lifespan than go through 6 hard years during the prime of my life.
