MR. BRIGHT TSAGLI Student Leadership/Undergraduate Level
College Assistant Bronx Community College
Bright Tsagli was involved in a plethora of activities while at Bronx Community College before graduating in May 2017 with a GPA of 3.8. Tsagli served in the CUNY Research Scholar Program at BCC’s Center for Sustainable Energy. Here, he designed and developed a greenhouse system that has multiple sensors integrated with an irrigation system to control factors such as carbon dioxide, water, heat, and oxygen. He developed a relay system, which controls an irrigation plant that provides water for plants. Also at the Center, he worked on the James Cook Summer Project, where he designed solutions using sensors: temperature, humidity, wind speed, lighting, carbon dioxide, sound, and light. He collaborated with other students on a team to carry out the installation of the devices, the primary objective being to collect data and analyze to draw conclusions. His teaching and mentoring experience at college includes being a math tutor, and he served as Student Government Association (SGA) Treasurer. In this capacity, he had to make a full fi nancial report for the SGA of the fi nancial aff airs of Bronx Community College, Inc., and the Auxiliary Enterprise Board, upon request. He prepared the SGA budget, which amounted to $90,000 for the 2016/2017 fi scal year.
