This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at U Mich chapter and does not reflect the views of Her Campus.

Last semester she traveled the world on Semester at Sea and next year she is dedicating her year to teaching underprivileged children; Allison Lipschutz is this week’s Campus Cutie! 

Year: Senior

Major: Psychology

Hometown: Bloomfield, MI

Fun Fact: I created an instagram for mason jars and for my dog! (follow me @jarsbymason @terstagram) 

 

Her Campus: What are your hobbies?

Allison Lipschutz: I am addicted to hot yoga, but my real hobby is making brownies (chocolate cookies are my favorite, though!)

 

HC: Where was your favorite place you visited abroad?

AL: Vietnam!

 

HC: What are your plans for next year?

AL: I am working for City Year in Chicago.

 

HC: What is City Year?

AL: City Year is a teaching program that goes to underprivileged communities to try and give the children a more positive and beneficial education. They live by the goal to make better happen and try and achieve that in Chicago Public Schools that need more support.

 

HC: What made you decide to work there?

AL: I want to advocate for and positively impact the lives of children who experience obstacles to their education and success. I am committed to making a significant impact on at risk children and help them stay on a positive track.

 

HC: What are your plans for the future?

AL: I want to go to law school. I am a criminal justice minor here and that is what got me interested in law. I want to help people who may not be able to afford the proper advocacy.
