You’ve probably spotted Nick Madara on campus (most likely at the gym). He’s not hard to find, because you can usually hear him and his buddies talking and laughing in the distance. Nick is so outgoing and friendly that he’s usually surrounded with people. If you happen to meet him, it’s not hard to get to know him. You’ll rarely meet someone so energetic and entertaining and just plain fun to be around.
