Freshman Seminar Fall 17 DWC

Starr

 

College has started. What am I going to major in? What do I need to do for my career? Am I on the right track? At some time, all college students ask themselves these questions and are unaware to head in the right direction. Sometimes sources are available but you don’t know where to go to get these answers. As Baruch students, we have an amazing place for us to visit to learn about career fairs, internships, jobs, mentoring, and much more. There are people attending who may be there with the questions just like you and together collective learning and attending workshops provides with the help you may need to reach your goals. At some time during anytime of any type of career we are evaluated at what we are doing and can do. The Starr Career development center helps you to get your resume reviewed to set you on a path to better presenting yourself to recruiters. One of the biggest challenges in the Job market are interviews. Your interview along with your resume really shape up how your employer interviews you and your acceptance is determined. Starr Career Development helps us by guiding us with the right steps to shape our careers. It is truly a precious resource available to Baruch College Students. Approach the Career center and you will be helped by someone at the reception.

 

 

Hillel

 

Growing up as a Sikh I have always read about stories of sacrifices in Sikhism. Sikhs always stood up for their belief and only picked up the sword to defend never force conversion. These are some things I have witnessed in Judaism also. One of the most infamous moments in history is the Holocaust. Although this is known by mostly everyone but not everyone knows of the 1984 Sikh Massacre. A mass murder or genocide of sort happened in 1984 where thousands of Sikhs lost their lives seeking referendum from the Indian government. To me this brings me close to Judaism as they have witnessed and share historical experiences similar to Sikhs. Jewish and Sikh values match very similarly.  This Jewish club brings to me a feeling of acceptance even though I am not a Jew.
