Allister Xu, News Editor

Allister Xu is currently a senior, and one of three news editors for The Lowell. Besides editing, he’s in ARK and the Japanese National Honor Society. When not trying and failing to learn new languages like Spanish and Japanese, Allister continues to spend his time stalking around in forests, parks, and possibly private property, and it almost certainly could be better spent elsewhere.
