Peter Shaw is the alleged son of Mr. & Mrs. Shaw, but there are many opposing stories. The most plausible of these is that he was adopted from carnival folk at a very young age. This may be the reason why Peter has a nasty habit of climbing everything that he can. His incessant climbing lead Peter to work at Camp Michigania for the summer after his freshman year in college, where Peter learned the ways of college and the world in general.

In his Junior year Peter began his career in architecture at the U of M School of Architecture. Since then, sightings of Peter have been limited. There have been those who say that Peter appears now and again around Ann Arbor, but few believe that he even survived up to what is now (or would have been, if that be the case) his Senior year. Rumor has it that he returned to his motherland of Scotland to retain his title as the Black Knight. In his very limited spare time outside of school and dance, Peter enjoys many activities such as skiing and climbing and is passionate about music and literature. Most of all, Peter enjoys loitering in local parks late at night.
