Alex Banks, Online Editor-in-Chief
My name is Alex Banks, and I am the Online Editor-in-Chief of Wadsworth’s student-run newspaper, The Bruin. I have worked on The Bruin staff for three years and was previously a staff writer and news editor. I have interviewed several people who campaigned in local elections and have even spoken to Ohio’s gubernatorial candidate from the election of 2022. I have covered and published several breaking news stories within just a few hours. The Bruin has given me many opportunities to leave my comfort zone and grow as a writer. I most enjoy writing news stories that inform the community about important issues happening around us.

![Zoro undergoes training in sniffing. Zoro is able to detect objects that contain human odor and he is then able to track or search for them. “For example, if a suspect was driving down the highway and threw a piece of evidence [like a gun] out the window into a field, Zoro could search the field and locate the evidence because it smells of human odor,” Petit said.
