Advice to Baruch College

So far, Baruch has been using the effective new media for providing information to students and faculty. Baruch has been able to provide instant information through e-mails, facebook, twitter etc. These are social networks and are some examples of new media.
I think Baruch is far more ahead of using new media. I am taking new media classe therefore I know more bout new medai than ever.So,I think Baruch need to do some more advertise or give some more information about new media to attract other students who might be interested to take this class. This is actually very interesting class. I was able to use Baruch wiki and explore trough it.
So far everything is fine but if they allow student to use new media to sell and buy books and other products would be great. This will save student's money and time. I think selling online to our fellows is better that selling our books in bookstore. This will also makes our college clean as students will stop posting on wall. Beside that I think Baruch should allow students to write review about the classes they already took by using new media. This might help other students.They have been using blackboard but I think they should satrt using wiki for collaboration

  1. If Baruch starts a program in which books are pre-ordered online, it will help students a lot because these books are conveniently sold. I believe that it should both have the options of either mailing the book to the students' respected addresses or the option of picking it up from the bookstore, just like in a Barnes and Nobles store. The bookstore would be less crowded and chaotic that way in the beginning of each semester. But it would be better if the bookstore is also open for students to browse around for books and to compare prices at others stores in order to save more money.
