Advice

There are several strategies that Baruch can implement that will utilize new media to provide a better and more convenient experience for their students and faculty. One of these strategies has to deal with snow days and other weather delays. On snow days or days of inclement weather, Baruch could have a Twitter page that will tweet about the status of the school day, whether it is cancelled or postponed. Email could be another viable option, but most professors usually don't even email their students to let them know that class is cancelled. Another opportunity, which is actually just more so convenient for me and other people like me that take advantage of the basketball courts, would be to keep the schedule for the court times in a wiki. As teams and other corporations enter the gym and make it no longer available for students, the wiki can be updated on a daily basis, with only certified users having access to make changes, to ensure accuracy.
