Some suggestions I would make to improve Baruch College would be to definitely incorporate Second Life into our academic environment. It is truly an innovative way to hold classes, and even meetings. The online environment makes it more fun for students, spiking their interests. It also may be more convenient in that students wouldn't have to commute for their class. As for meetings, if students have a group project or if professors want to set up meetings with students outside of class, Second Life may be useful for those purposes as well.
Another suggestion that may be beneficial to Baruch would be to incorporate the Student newspaper in a blog or wiki form. News and information can be shared several times a day. Of course, that doesn't mean everyone in the student body will contribute but there can be sections where students can share information or such [like a wiki answer], sharing new trends, deals, etc.

I agree 100% with using second life at Baruch. I did my presentation on Second Life and its uses in education and I've learned so many ways we can apply second life to things we do in college.
