If I were to give advice to Baruch College for bettering it in terms of New Media. I would highly recommend it to increase its presence all over whether it be through Facebook, Reddit, it's own website, or even Twitter. I think that Twitter can be a good way for students to keep connected with the school. The most important part would be to make it appealing to the student body. Ideally all of these platforms would be student run as they know best what they want. One example of a really popular Facebook page that Baruch could make would be Baruch Confessions. Of course, it may have to be moderated to an extent.
Baruch can also better itself by having a stronger presence on YouTube. For example, there can be videos of big events and also sport games. I understand that the VC building has TV which shows events and footage of events, I feel that those are pretty useful and help keep students up to date with the school. In terms of Reddit, there can be a Baruch subreddit for people to complain or just shoot out questions. This will create a better relationship between the school community and administration. Communication is one of the most important part of any relationship and New Media is a great instrument for doing so.
