Standout Student<br />
Sponsored by Marquette Bank<br />
Ian Duke, Lincoln-Way West,<br />
Senior<br />
Ian Duke was picked as this week’s Standout<br />
Student because of his academic performance.<br />
What is one essential you must have when<br />
studying?<br />
Probably my dog, Daisy. She sleeps at my<br />
feet, and it helps me relax and focus.<br />
What do you like to do when not in school or<br />
studying?<br />
I enjoy playing baseball and practicing<br />
when the weather is nice. It’s an easy way to<br />
get rid of the stress from school.<br />
What are some of the most played songs on<br />
your Spotify?<br />
Just about any song by Panic! at the Disco.<br />
Brandon Urie has a voice of an angel.<br />
Whom do you look up to and why?<br />
I look up to my parents. They always support<br />
me when I made decisions, and I aspire<br />
to be as supporting and accepting as them.<br />
Who is your favorite teacher and why?<br />
Over the past four years, my favorite<br />
teacher is Dr. Baran. He made honors physics<br />
fun and easy. He had always told us that<br />
if the Cubs won the World Series, he would<br />
not be at school the next day. I have yet to<br />
see how his day off went.<br />
What is your favorite class?<br />
Calculus is my favorite class. Though<br />
most people dread math, it comes easier to<br />
me, and I like the challenge. Mr. Czart makes<br />
it a lot easier too.<br />

What’s one thing that stands out about your<br />
school?<br />
The amount of spirit and pride that the students<br />
at West have makes the sporting events<br />
and extracurriculars a lot more fun to participate<br />
in.<br />
What extracurricular do wish your school<br />
had?<br />
I really wish we had a boys badminton<br />
team or ultimate frisbee. Both of them have<br />
been underrated for a very long time and<br />
should be addressed.<br />
If you could change thing about school what<br />
would it be?<br />
An open campus lunch would be great.<br />
Would I would give to be able to order Buffalo<br />
Wild Wings or Rising Sun...<br />
What’s your best memory from school?<br />
Winning Homecoming Olympics my<br />
sophomore and junior year was a lot of fun.<br />
We had an unstoppable squad.<br />
