Advice to Baruch College

There are many areas in which Baruch could afford to improve on, mainly the ways we ascend the Vertical campus, but I digress. An area that could also benefit from improvement is Baruch's embracing of New Media. The particular areas I'd improve on are further integration of the school and classes with social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter. As it stands, we're forced to use an antiquated Blackboard system with limited communication options. In a world where we're almost forced to be connected with each other, it would be smart to embrace that notion and somehow tie blackboard into social networking. Furthermore, another way in which Baruch could advance its new media platform is to integrate local businesses with the school via an internet medium such as the aforementioned Facebook and Twitter.

  1. I completely agree with you, Blackboard is very boring and old. Baruch college should start looking for fun networking sites where students can interact better with each other and with professors. Great idea!
