Baruch Voices

The workshop Baruch voices was surprisingly an entertaining one. I found it surprising how different these monologues were compared to the ones at convocation. It is strange how they essential ideas expressed in these monologues change each semester. It seems like a certain theme is reoccurring in these monologues each semester  whether this is purposeful or not.  It is nice to get to know our students, hear an important event in their lifer their views on Baruch college as well as their experience there. Every person has a certain story, a secret, or something that determines the person they are today. I found some of these monologues a bit too personal, there are certain things that shouldn’t be revealed to the public in my opinion. Yet overall I found voices a very interesting experience and a way to get to know each other. I found these actors that presented these monologues very professional. They helped bring these ordinary students story to life These actors presentations of the monologues were much more exciting than the actual students. They seemed much more life like, much more real, vivacious, and just more professional. They gave me a much better understanding of the true meaning of the dories behind these certain students and what was really trying to be expressed. Voices is a great way to get to know what kind of students attend Baruch college and to get an understanding that you cant judge a book behind its cover. Thus, I found voices an overall great opportunity for this, I was able to get a better understanding that Baruch is one of the most diverse school enviornemnts around.
