Freshman Seminar Fall 17 DTB

Blog post 1

It’s a pretty generic way to start off my blog entry, but in the beginning, I went to the Beta Alpha Psi general interest meeting in order to fulfill my blog post requirement. However during the process I was able to learn many things, and not just for the sake of writing things down on this post. At first I wanted to visit a more entertaining club such as the e-sports club that fits more into my interests, but since I was to write about this event, I chose to go to a more formal looking meeting to attend. And I’d have to say, that I chose just the right one. In the BAP meeting I was able to learn about things that I’ve been looking for ever since I entered Baruch. Up until now I wasn’t really able to get a gist of what the future would be like. Baruch thus far had been pretty lax, and nothing really different from high school. But after the meeting I was able to get a better feeling of my future career and how Baruch college would help me navigate towards that goal. During the meeting I was able to obtain information regarding SACC and how BAP would be able to help me plan my career. I heard from the meeting that they offer things like mock interviews, which would help me greatly because I suffer from severe nervousness. Although these things were probably taught to me before, I hadn’t really paid attention to them, so they weren’t really drilled in me. Going to an honors society meeting I was able to see a lot of people who were very much ready for their future, and the things that they said they’ve done really helped me envision my future better. As people who’ve already been through what I am about to, even small advice that they gave, like how I would have to spend more time at campus than at home if I wanted to pursue a better career, was something I could take a lot from.
