Today I attended Baruch’s major and minor event located in the multipurpose room. At first, I had difficulties finding the location. I didn’t know where it was until I asked a friend, and he told me that it’s at the same place that Baruch Voice was located last Thursday. As I head to the event I noticed a long line, and a girl handing out flyers with the Bearcat next to her. It was 12:28pm. This is probably the line for the event, I thought. After a couple of minutes when I finally approached the beginning of the line, there was these two ladies two were handing out two papers. One of them was a survey we had to do about the event. As I walked into the room I noticed that there was three rows. Each representative sat at a table with a big paper of their major/minor on it. It was not what I expected, because I didn’t think it would be a interactive event. Rather, I thought it would be like a lecture where all of us were seated and the representatives talk. Overall the event was alright. There was a handful of majors I was interested in and took a couple of flyers from, which included marketing, computer information system, real estate, public relations, and so forth. But, I did not find this event very helpful. The most helpful thing that came out of it was the flyers, but the representatives did not not speak much. I think part of the problem is that most students do not know what to ask. The truth is that most of us barely know anything about these majors to begin with, and don’t know how to choose.
