Why is becoming Rights-Literate so important? Nick discusses the unique and vital role that Human Rights play in all our lives.
Nick’s academic interests lie in international relations and human rights, and this year he is writing a Social Studies Honors thesis on human rights education with Ms. Lindsey Stolarsky. He currently serves as Secretary-General of Hunter’s Model United Nations club, and helps to plan and organize HCHS’ Human Rights Day event, as he has done in past years. When not in the classroom or holding a Model UN gavel, Nick may be found directing plays in the auditorium, editing articles in the What’s What office, playing trumpet or singing in one of Hunter’s musical groups, or hiking into the woods. An Eagle Scout, he usually finds his way out of the woods as well.
