Advice

Baruch College can use new media to improve the college in many different ways. Firstly, I would like to update and make some changes to the “Academic Calendar”. The calendar should provide the general registration date for “all students,” so that students will be able to plan ahead. Even sending out the semester calendar for students at the very beginning of the semester will help them plan ahead. Secondly, I’ll like to suggest that Baruch make changes to the login information, like “user ID and user Password” for the library, the computers at campus, and the campus Wi-Fi. Baruch “suggests” students and faculties to use the same format to access these facilities. For example: the user name is “first name initial. last name”  (j.thomas), and the password is “yyMmmdd + last 4 digit social number” (02Nov911234). I think having the same format for“passwords” might cause problems. For example,, if there is someone who knows your information, they will easily be able to access your account and misuse it. So, my suggestion would be to change the format of passwords and let the user choose how they want it.

    Hi Aye!

    I completely agree with the points that you made. The beginning of each semester is when I have to go and find the academic calendar for the next few months. It would be great if they sent it out to us in an easier to use format! As someone who always forgets her password and username it is convenient for them to all be the same thing. However, I do understand where you are coming from with the privacy and the misuse of this information. Great points!
