I hope that all is well and you’re managing throughout the semester. For your second blog post:

Post the monologue you’ve developed in your seminar, along with a self-portrait (which can be a photograph, an image, a cartoon, a drawing, or some other depiction of how you see yourself.)

Good Luck on any midterms coming up!

Below are the requirements for your first blogging post.

The theme this year’s “Performing Diasporas: Identities in motion” project is “Who do you think you are?” Reflect on the following four questions, and craft a response of no more than 500 words. Feel free to integrate media into your post.

A. Tell us who you think you are

B. Share your top 3 concerns about your freshman year at Baruch College and explain why.

C. So far, what do you think will make your Baruch College experience different from your high school experience?

D. How do you think your first year at college will change you.

Please sure to have this completed by September 17.

Happy Blogging!

Adjusting to Baruch might be a bit difficult, but don’t worry. I put some links that I think may be helpful to you.

Baruch Connect: http://baruchconnect.com/
This website keeps you updated with all that’s going on in Baruch.

Collegiate Link: https://baruch.collegiatelink.net/
This website informs you about the different clubs/organizations on campus. A good way to find out more about a club is to attend events. And there’s usually always free food! So that’s an incentive to check these clubs out. Remember you need your Baruch User ID and Password.

Textbooks:  http://www.cuny.edu/about/resources/student/textbook-savings.html
Before running to the Baruch bookstore for your textbooks, check out these websites for better deals. Also, there is a book store called Shakespeare & Co. Located on 23rd Street between Lexington and 3rd Ave. (it shares space with DaVinci Art Store) and they usually sell textbooks cheaper than the Baruch Bookstore.

Congratulations on making it to Baruch. I hope that Freshman Seminar helps you to settle into Baruch. Later, I will be posting the blogging requirements.Once again welcome to Baruch!
