I went to the United Chinese Language Association club today with my boy Kenny. There was a lot of Chinese people just like me there. First the executives introduced themselves. Then we made lanterns to celebrate the upcoming Chinese holiday, Mid-Autumn, and played games which included google feud and zoom. I talked with one of the club advisers and her name was QiQi, which I thought was a cool ass name. There was Chinese food too and I got myself some chow mein. Although it was an alright club meeting, I don’t see myself joining it. Yo I swear I was actually at the club meeting though. This was just the only picture Kenny took while I was there.
Hillel is a club in Baruch that tries to connect people to their Jewish culture. I usually come to relax and hang out in their space, but on Monday I went to their September 11 meeting. They started with a story about a former member who died, and how there is a scholarship created to remember her memory. This was followed with a moment of silence, the lighting of candles, and a passage being read. It was a very nice ceremony, and gave a more personal connection to this great tragedy. The people there were very friendly, and I’m intending on coming back.
Freshman Seminar Fall 17 EWB Blog Post on Student Life
This past Thursday, I stopped by the Hillel at Baruch in order to get more involved in the club. Being a Jew on a non Jewish campus, it allows me to connect to all the other Jewish people on campus. It also allows me to feel like I always have a place to go if I ever have any questions or concerns about school. After socializing and eating with the president and vice president of the Hillel, I know that the Hillel at Baruch will provide me with a place to continue to explore my Jewish identity. I am looking forward to being a full participant during my time at Baruch.
