Nicholas Munson

Hi everyone! My name is Nicholas Munson, and I’m the co-trip leader for Chicago: Hunger and Homelessness. I’m a junior, and am a Journalism and Government & Politics double-major hailing from Hagerstown, Md. My first experience with Alternative Breaks was last spring break, when I decided to go to Atlanta, Ga. and focus on hunger and homelessness. Luckily, I will be able to continue with this topic as a trip leader in an entirely new city I’ve always wanted to see. Outside of AB, I am a sports staff writer for the Diamondback (everyone – pick up the paper!), a member of the Appellate Board on the University of Student Judiciary, a member of Primannum Honor Society and the National Society of Collegiate Scholars, and a student in the Federal Semester Program. I am obsessed with baseball (GO METS), love history, am into writing (except for academic papers), and a Titanic and Star Wars nerd. I’m most excited about coming together as a group and setting out to a completely different region and city of the U.S. and striving to tackle a social issue.
