Graduate Baruchian Editorial Meeting
Come meet the other editors and contributors to the blog over a few cold ones at our “executive conference room” at the Hairy Monk.

Here are some sample topics: Write in your native tongue and english to show off how diverse and international Baruch is; Write about a class or professor who influenced you or an instructor who shouldn’t be; Opine about the graduate experience; Share and compare your favorite watering holes; Expose what’s wrong at Baruch.
