Advice to Baruch College

I think new media can help improve many different aspects of college life. I think a wiki for students to update different events would be extremely helpful. You could organize student body events and keep it updated on the wiki in case any sudden changes occur. Also, I think something that would be extremely helpful for new students would be a virtual tour of the school. I think this would attract incoming freshman, making them more familiar with the campus before the first day of classes. Also, besides organizing events, new media can contribute to the culture of your classroom. If classwork includes interactions with classmates on new media websites, that creates a friendlier culture among your class. In a regular class setting, students walk into the classroom, sit through class, and walk out without saying a word to anyone. New media encourages interaction between classmates, making class a more comfortable place.
