Walker Smith, News Editor

Walker is a sophomore Politics and International Affairs major on the pre-law track. In addition to being the News Editor of The Paladin, he is the President of the Furman Chess Team. His other hobbies and interests include playing and studying piano, classical music, movies (especially Star Wars), astronomy, being terrible at every video game and sport, and hating writing about himself in the third person. Three fun facts about him are that his record against the Vice President of the Furman Chess Team is roughly 400-0, he is currently learning 5 languages on Duolingo, and his favorite animal is the platypus.
