Baruch Voices

Baruch Voices is an event in which the most voted for freshman from each FRO class get a chance to present their monologues in front of the school. Watching their performances you can see all the different types of ways people express themselves when given an open opportunity. Some of the monologues were very serious while others were comedic. It was interesting to see how different students decided to go about the open ended task of writing a monologue about anything. Two of my favorite monologues included one in which a student made a rap about his pro-life stance on abortion. I have never seen a serious political argument made in that way, and it was very well done and entertaining. The second monologue that I really enjoyed was the monologue about Squidward going to the bubble bowl. He presented it in a way that made people think this is something that he has actually done when in reality he was just descibing what Squidward felt during the bubble bowl episode of Spongebob. It was surprising, and well executed. I am glad that I went to Baruch voices, and plan on going next year.
