Verbatim: Which member of the Paly community do you think deserves a spot on the Time 100 list and why?

Time Magazine recently published the Time 100, a list of 100 individuals who are “transforming the world.” The Paly Voice asked students around campus who they would pick from Paly to be on the list.

“Amir Moheimani, because he fights the power.”
-Elliot Sanborn, freshman

“Alex Huerta, because he’s just really influential in the way he
carries himself.”
-Marissa Florant, freshman

“I’d say Mr. Yonkers, because he’s the coolest teacher in the world.”
-Thomas Cho, sophomore

“Ms. Laurence, because she’s my adviser and she helped me pick my classes. She’s really nice and smart.”
-Tiffany Yeung, sophomore

“Daniel Shaffer, because he’s going to control the world by age 20.”
-Cyril Gary, junior

“Reese, because he lays down the law.”
-Sonia Shapiro, junior

“I’d say Ms. Kolb because she’s just really accepting of everyone’s opinions.”
-Abby Stanley, junior

“Anybody in the school who is involved in community service, like the people who run YCS. Adam Whitfield started Action in Africa and that is really cool.”
-Shireen Tofig, junior

“Mr. McNulty, because he’s very inspirational. He’s a great person to look up to.”
-Trevor Wagner, senior

“Mr. Knight and Mr. McGovern, because they have their own style of teaching. They really know how to get the information across to the class.”
-David Sopkin, senior

“There are many people whom I would pick. If I had to choose, I’d say Ben Chen because he’s a truly awesome tutor. He’s put in many hours and he’s very cheerful.”
-Mrs. Mayo, ARC Co-Coordinator
