Our group chose the topic of culture because upon our initial experiences at Baruch, we found that there were an abundance of people who were from various countries and places in the world. This makes for a greater community filled with various cultures and experiences that allow for an expansion of learning amongst each other. Given the fact that we valued culture so much, we felt it would only be right to shed light on the five different cultures that we represented in our group. That is why we chose to find the different New York Times articles that talked about Jamaican, Moroccan, Colombian, Italian, and Irish cultures. Culture was less of a concern to us as it was a great characteristic of the school and because of that, we decided to focus on it not only on the macro level of the school, but also the micro level amongst our own group.
