Whitney Museum

After coming to Baruch and especially the freshman seminar course, I have made a lot of new friends. Sharing an English class with the same people in my seminar class makes the experience at Baruch even greater. What tops this is that in our English class we had a chance to go to the Whitney Museum as a class trip. Last time I was ever on a class trip in school was back when I was in middle school, and that trip was pretty boring. This trip, however, was different from the rest. In college no one expects the professor to actually host a trip to a museum in place of a lecture. But our English professor incorporated this trip into his lesson plans to give us something we can actually enjoy in college. It was my first time to the Whitney Museum and with the tickets free because of the CUNY ID, it was even more of an enjoyable experience. We got to spend a whole hour and a half exploring the museum as a class. Not only that but the view from the 8th floor of the Whitney was amazing, something everyone should see at least once. It was on this trip that I got to learn more about the city I live in, and the many areas that make my head go crazy. Before this trip, I honestly never knew there was an A, B, or C train in this city. This trip to the Whitney has really taught me many things about a city that I thought I knew all about. It makes me curious to see what more this wonderful city has to offer and what more is there to come in the future.
