New York Times Reflection (blog 2)

In my group we picked the theme “diversity” for our New York Times front page. We picked this theme because it is something important to everyone in our group. We live in one of the most diverse cities in the world and think it is important to embrace that. Baruch is also a very diverse school with people from all over the world. The articles I did were about the fight for diversity in an Alabama College sororities and the belief that diversity is important in a company called Accenture Ltd. This experience influenced my understanding of “news literacy” as very important. The news is a good way to spread the word about an important topic. The article about the Alabama College will hopefully call attention to the lack of diversity in sororities all over America. I believe the news is the most effective way to make a change in something. As a result of this project I will pay more attention to important news stories around the world.
