Seems like he was a good kid. So sad.
Cal student shot and killed, family searches for answers
Seth Smith, who was about to start his third year at Cal in August, was shot to death at close range at about 10:30 p.m. on Dwight Way near Valley Street, said Officer Byron White, a Berkeley police spokesman. Smith apparently told a roommate he was going out for a walk.
'Everybody's friend': UC Berkeley student Seth Smith dies at 19
“It’s always ironic when you have a drama student who has zero drama,” said Smith’s former theater teacher Christina Chun Moslen, discussing Smith’s kindness and warmth. “He was everybody’s friend.”
This sentiment was echoed by Smith’s friends, who described him as someone who never said an unkind word. Smith’s former classmate Jasmine Wang said Smith was so beloved by their eighth grade geometry classmates that they made T-shirts with Smith’s face on them and wore them to PE every Friday for what they named “Seth Day.”
The front of the shirts read “It’s Seth Day! Let’s Grapevine!” a dance move Smith was known for. The back of the shirts listed the six steps to “Sethvana”: “walk like Seth, talk like Seth, dance like Seth, argue like Seth, do good math” and finally, “become the Seth.”
Many middle and high school classmates attributed the tightknit nature of their class to Seth.
