New Media can improve many aspects of the college. Let us start with social media accounts. Baruch College is on most, if not on all of the social networking services. In order for social media to be effective in improving Baruch College, it must have a large audience to display it to. The Baruch College Facebook page has roughly 25,000 followers which is a healthy number. However, Baruch College’s Instagram page could do better as it has just under 6,000 followers. In order to increase to gain more social media attention, Baruch College must post content that entices viewers to view the page.
Social media is one of the most used communication tools between organizations and people. The college should update its Facebook and Instagram page with more content that connects with students. For example, the college can post about future projects on campus. The college could have posted updates on Facebook and Instagram informing students about the drastic appearance changes they would be witnessing in the library before being caught off-guard with the scaffolding and yellow caution tape. The college can also post important deadlines such as open registration for classes or last day to drop a class. From what I’ve seen so far, most of the major events and deadlines are posted from the accounts of student organizations and student life as opposed to the official Baruch College account.
Another idea is to create a “help desk forum” where students could voice their issues, ideas, and concerns to the Baruch governing body. There could be people from each level of government who would review these “tickets” daily and implement strategies to resolve them. There could be a few representatives from the Undergraduate Student Government, one or two from the Graduate Student Assembly, and from the Baruch College’s governing body (not quite sure if there’s a name for them.)
