<p>baruch has a excellent business program but i dont think they are good for journalism. it is really a business-oriented public 4-year college because of its better known Zicklin School of Business. the other schools are kinda left in the back a bit.</p>
<p>Haha I'm sorry I just can't get over the bright bright orange, it kills my eyes.</p>
<p>I'm from NYC, everybody gets into Baruch here, half my school goes there. It's good for business only, it doesn't have anything else but business-related majors really.</p>
