While a student senator, Walsh sat on a traditions committee, and he successfully lobbied for the acquisition of a live mascot, a Tamaskan dog named Tuffy. Walsh was also part of the team to establish the Traditions Keeper memento program, and he helped establish the Coaches’ Corner statuary project near Reynolds Coliseum.
As Student Body President, Walsh advocated for more student engagement, and he helped found both the Wolfstock Concert Series and the Packapalooza concert event held at the end of NC State Welcome Week. During the year Walsh was president, NC State celebrated its 125th anniversary.
Walsh is also well known for his part in Roll Pack. After NC State men's basketball team beat Duke in January 2013, Walsh assisted friend Will Privette in rushing the court. Though Privette was knocked from his wheelchair in the excitement, he was unharmed, and a Roll Pack t-shirt fundraising campaign resulted, garnering more than $3,300 for an NC State disability support organization.
Walsh graduated from NC State in 2013 with a Bachelor of Arts in political science. He then worked as legislative intern in government affairs at SAS and as legislative assistant in NC State University's Office of Federal Affairs.
