Advice

If I were hired by Baruch College to improve the school, there are a number of ways I would be able to implement new media to elevate the school.  For example, there can be a separate website where students can get one on one help from tutors in order to perform better on tests.  This will be more convenient for both students and tutors because they would not have to meet face to face.  I believe this would significantly improve exam grades.  Another improvement that could be made using new media is having classrooms with computers dedicated solely for test taking in order to help the school limit the use of paper and cut costs that go to purchasing printing paper.  I believe these two changes involving new media would help elevate Baruch College.

Privacy

As technology continues to advance and become more relevant in our everyday lives, people seem to ignore how our privacy is getting invaded as a result of this.  As technology continues to advance, more of our personal information is being kept by companies and databases.  Our phones are practically an extension of some of us.  We have become too comfortable entrusting our personal information in these devices and databases.  If people are some how able to crack through a device or database, it becomes very easy for one to do serious damage to another individual’s life.  People are now able to track others and see their online activity much easier than it had been a couple decades ago.  Although technology is making our lives much easier, is it worth our safety and security?
