There are many clubs and organizations for students to join here at Baruch College. One of these many groups is Delta Sigma Pi, a “Professional Business Fraternity”. At first, I was uncertain about my visit to this fraternity because, frankly, I was not sure what to expect from it. The decision to show up was very spontaneous. After settling in, I started to meet the other members of the club, members from all classes, freshman, and upper classes. The organizers and other new members were very welcoming and friendly. My uncertainty and insecurity quickly started to go away as I got to know members of my smaller group. I learned what the organization was built on, to provide professional advice to jumpstart our careers throughout our years of college.
The first things we went through were resume tips. What to do and not do while creating a resume. I had learned to jam it with as much information as possible, whilst being concise and not putting in unnecessary details. I took some tips from the club leaders and plan to use them in the future.
Another thing I really appreciated about the fraternity was the atmosphere and the knowledge that I had, even more, support in terms of my professional and social life at Baruch than what is offered by other departments and offices at the college. Knowing that I had more people who I can receive advice and tips from only brought me more relief as coming to a new school as a freshman can be slightly stressful. I am glad to have made new friends who I can learn from and spend time with and I plan to stay involved by going to meetings and events organized by the club.
