AKPsi Rush Fall 2017: Spread the Love

One of the first organizations I checked out during club hours was Alpha Kappa Psi (AKPsi). In short, they are a professional business fraternity that focuses on brotherhood, professionalism, and philanthropy. The past week was the beginning of their first few rush events, where people can get to know what AKPsi is and network with both fellow rushes and the brothers. One of the events named “Spread the Love” was a philanthropy event in which we gave back to the community. We prepared peanut butter and jelly sandwiches to give to those in need. Personally, I believe the act of giving back is definitely something we should prioritize. There are many unfortunate people out there that can benefit from our acts in any shape or form. Something as simple as taking a sandwich and spreading peanut butter and jelly on it can really go a long way. I got the chance to talk to the brothers and learned more about AKPsi. Other than the brothers, there were also a large amount of rushes that came out to this event. I was able to meet a great deal of individuals who were in a similar situation as me, which was great, especially at a commute school like Baruch. Moreover, I  was able to get insights towards my major, accounting. As a freshman, I do not exactly know what path I will take eventually and how exactly things would turn out, but it is all a learning experience. Maybe I will come to realize that accounting is the major for me, or it is not. It is different for everyone, so it is not until I really take a class or two to really find out for myself. Overall, I enjoyed the event and look forward to the many more that follow.
