Advice to Baruch College

Baruch College has already been using new media for a long time. As we could see from the home page of Baruch College, we have twitter, face book, LinkedIn and blogs to make announcements. Also we use these social networking tools to connect people together, like joining the events.

However, we still have ways to improve Baruch College by using more new media. I will suggest setting up an Android App or Apple App for people visiting our home page.  Now, more and more people prefer use cell phone (iPhone, Android Phone, Blackberry) to check emails and some updated information. Most of time, people need to use an URL address to access this information. With the rapid development of applications on phones, the use of application on phones has become a main stream of using new media. The use of applications become so poplar is because sometimes it’s hard for people to find a computer, and they are able to do anything with a cell phone that has different kinds of applications. Therefore, we should have a Baruch App that people can use to access information that relates to Baruch College’s most updated announcement, and to check our blackboard, e-sims and email account. This Baruch App will create more convenience for student, which will save their time for searching for a computer station.
