Advice to Baruch College
New media is most frequently used to expand and innovate certain aspects of society. I think Baruch could greatly benefit from adapting new forms of new media into its atmosphere. My advice to them would aim to create new forms of media platforms that would make both the students and the faculties' lives a lot easier. For example, Baruch could create a certain website or blog for anyone who is interested. Students can use it to meet new friends, discuss class topics, or even share notes and study for exams together. Professors and other faculties can use these blogs as well. Whether it be professors of the same department discussing their teaching methods and sharing new ideas or actual individuals working in the office using a more organized way of communicating and getting the job done. There are so many different ideas that could be introduced to Baruch and it is slowly evolving into a technology based and new media environment already.
Great points, I definitely agree that a New Media space where students can interact by sharing notes and/or creating study groups is a great idea. Students could discuss their classes and for help on occasion and maybe organize club activities on it. It would definitely be more effective than fliers on the wall.
