Class of 2021 Cadets Evan Walker (left) and Tyrese Bender earned Rhodes scholarships in an announcement Nov. 21. The two cadets will study abroad for their master’s degrees at Oxford Unversity in England. Daine Van de Wall, first captain and U.S. Military Academy Class of 2020, was the last cadet to receive a Rhodes scholarship. The last time the academy produced two Rhodes Scholars in a year was in 2014. Born and raised in Rowlett, Texas, Walker is an Operations Research major and was the Cadet Basic Training regimental commander last summer. While at Oxford, she will read for a Master in Philosophy in Comparative Social Policy with a focus on the intersection between policy and inequalities in the workplace and their influence on social inclusion and mobility for racial and gender minorities. From San Antonio, Bender, who is currently the deputy brigade commander, is an Engineering Management major at West Point and he will pursue a Master of Science in Computer Science in Sociology and Evidence-Based Social Intervention and Policy Evaluation at Oxford.
