Who am I?

by Greg

A. Tell us who you think you are?
I as an identity am Gregory Romano, but this question poses so much more than that. At this instant in time I can define who I am, unfortunately come tomorrow this question would have been answered differently. I am constantly changing as I am influenced by my friends, family, and even society. The most constant definition I can put together for myself are the roles I hold in others lives. I am a son, a brother, a cousin, a friend, a boyfriend, a student, a teacher, a worker, unfortunately I can go on all day long as could anyone else. I am a person.

B. Share your top three concerns about your freshman year at Baruch college and explain why?

1. Keeping up with the work load: Although in high school I took college and A.P. courses the environment was much different. I hope that I can adapt to the new atmosphere and keep up with the heavy readings we’re assigned.

2. Maintaining a high GPA: I know its not everything, but your GPA plays a major role over the jobs you’re able to earn. Again I hope I can keep up with my work to maintain a good GPA.

3. Enjoying my time at Baruch: I travel an hour and 20 minutes to and from school everyday, the earliest I get home is 6:15 where I come home to either work or homework. I hope i can find the time to enjoy myself during my Baruch career.

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

Coming from a catholic all boy high school, the Baruch College is much different for me. You’re allowed much more freedom and determine your own fate.

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

I think through my first your of college most obviously my realm of knowledge will expand. Furthermore, I think I will become more disciplined and better accustomed to the college environment for learning, but more so to life.
