It was a good feeling opening up my phone to see that class is canceled. The whole day I felt so happy because I had the opportunity to catch up on assignments. I went to my club team practice for the rest of the day because the Baruch pool was closed. I felt bad for the people who had classes in the other building, but then again I should be thankful that I am have classes hereat Baruch.

Reflection 1 and 2
Reflection #1: We talked about Academic integrity and how its fair and obligatory for all of us. Coming to class to see you guys is always fun, both of you bring a positive feeling that I would like to share in the class. The way how you guys presented academic integrity was coherent and very understanding. The topic of academic integrity does not apply in the class, but in our everyday life. From little to big things. I can tell that Academic integrity will be our foundation in this class.
Reflection #2: I came to class a little late, I apologize for that, but right away as I walked in to the classroom, I heard Study abroad and right away I was thinking what opportunities awaits. I heard how it was like to study abroad and the benefits of it. I agree with the idea of traveling and studying. New environment and new groups of people. Studying abroad does give me more curiosity and I hope I get the opportunity. The next thing was called the honors program, I wasn’t as intrigued as the study abroad, but the honors program does give you leadership opportunities and to serve the Baruch community. There were two types of honors program. The provost scholars and the inquiry scholars. Both are very similar except that Provost is a more restricted because it requires you take 8-10 honor classes, but you get more interaction with the faculty. The inquiry is the more flexible and creative scholars. You basically create, and research ideas and contribute in projects. I would prefer the Inquiry because it gives you the opportunity to spread your ideas. You never know if your ideas can bring in innovation.
