I was never the type of person to participate in school activities or clubs. Well I was in high school but only when I had time during school. Not on my own free time. I was always very busy and always had something to do, which was mandatory. So I had no idea what club to go to or where the clubs were so I went with a friend. She took me to a club called tamid. Tamid is a business oriented club, which was great for me because I love learning about money! They occasionally hold panelist discussions with entrepreneurs and actually had an entrepreneur speak at the Hillel the other day which was followed by a networking event. I do not remember the entrepreneurs name which means he probably was not so big but it was still cool that they actually had someone come speak. Tamid is also a club in other schools such as Yeshiva University, Columbia and New York University. Experiencing a club at Baruch was much different from high school in regards to professionalism. Clubs at my high school were run by students who only ran the club because it looked good on their resume. Very few people were actually passionate about the club. Baruch is different. Based off the one club I went to, it seemed as if the leaders actually cared about the club and put effort into running it.
