The Science Survey

Arian Berisha, Staff Reporter

Arian Berisha is a Copy Chief for ‘The Science Survey,’ helping with quality control and copy-edits, while also writing for the school’s newspaper. He enjoys writing articles that discuss the intersection between real-world events and the student body, drawing opinions from Bronx Science students, and giving them an outlet for expression. He believes that journalistic writing and photography work in tandem to the benefit of the audience, where the photos take on the role of capturing the story through vistas of inquiry and evocation. In his free time, he works on his role as a staff reporter for the Perceptron blog, run by Columbia University first-years, discussing the interstices between technology and public policy. Whether it is watching economics lectures or enjoying cooking channels, Arian is occupied with something around him. He is also a varsity member on Model UN and an NHS member for the 2020-2021 school year. In college, Arian plans on studying economics and computer science, while also participating in journalistic clubs in the future.

“Reaching out to other students from the class of 2020 who got accepted into my Early Action college was so incredibly helpful. The supplementary questions were exactly the same this year, so I was able to see successful answers to those questions that other Bronx Science students wrote. Their examples helped me to start thinking out of the box and really be unafraid to include some quirky/out there answers. It also made me feel supported to have them edit and look over what I had written. I loved getting to listen and learn from their experiences, and apply that knowledge to my own application. Don’t be afraid to reach out to the class of 2021, even if it’s someone you don’t know very well. We would love to help you with your application process, whether you need advice, edits, or just want to toss ideas around!" said Enza Jonas-Giugni ’21.

I also enjoy going to classes, learning, and seeing all of the teachers and staff in person, of whom I am very fond. I feel safe within the school," said Faika Tabia '21.
