My first 3 months at Baruch

I remember the reactions I got from people when I told them I was attending Baruch in the fall. Each and every one of them just got this puzzled look on their face and then proceeded to ask me why. Baruch has a reputation of being a business-oriented school (which it is) and that everyone who attends here is a stereotypical nerd. Stereotypical meaning that they all go straight home after school and just do homework. Now this judgment is what caused the puzzled look on all those peoples faces. I love to enjoy the moment and have a ridiculous amount of fun and to everyone else Baruch just didn’t seem like the right fit. After being here for a few months I actually let that idea go because I have met so many different kinds of people with many different interests besides schoolwork. I feel horrible for judging the population of the school before I even got to attend and got to know anyone. Baruch is an awesome school that looks out for its students. It provides so many activities and helpful workshops; which I think is really cool. There are services that are made available to everyone just so students don’t feel so overwhelmed and alone and this has been of a lot of use to me. I’m glad I decided to attend Baruch, to be honest I think it is a great school regardless of your major. I chose this GIF because I think it describes anyone’s college experience. You get home at the end of the day and you just have so many things to take care of you collapse onto your bed. This is an everyday thing for me. I get home, sit on the side of my bed, and just throw myself backwards and go over all my responsibilities. It’s all very overwhelming and difficult to manage but a school like Baruch has made me feel comforted going through this. It has been a pleasant few months here at Baruch.
