SAC Sound-off: You get one question

March 6, 2012

We asked the members of the Student Advisory Council to pick someone they wish they could meet, and tell us why. Here are their answers:

Ancestors

Carly Joseph, Pontiac Notre Dame junior
I would ask all of my grandparents about what it was like when they were growing up.

Elle Lehman, Portland St. Patrick senior
I would ask anyone in my family who lived hundreds of years ago what it was like where my family came from, and why they moved to America.

Visionaries

Tyler Wilson, Rudyard senior
I would ask Martin Luther King Jr. how he was so brave.

Maria Buczkowski, Detroit Country Day senior
I would ask Albert Einstein to convince my teachers to have a daydreaming class in school, since he developed the theory of relativity by daydreaming.

Entrepreneurs

Alissa Jones, Muskegon Catholic Central senior
I would like to ask Steve Jobs how he came up with the idea of the Ipod gadgets.

Bailey Truesdell, Grand Blanc senior
I would like to ask Warren Buffett how he made his billions.

Sports Legends

Kevin Beazley, Detroit Catholic Central senior
Michael Jordan: What are the little things that nobody knows about or sees that brought you to the top?

Matt Freeman, Owosso junior
Bear Bryant: What does it take to become the leader he was?

Evan Lamb, Rogers City junior
Joe Paterno: I'd ask how it felt to have touched the hearts of so many people throughout the years.

Kings (of rock-n-roll)

Lena Madison, New Buffalo senior
I would like to ask Elvis Presley if is he is dead or alive still.

Jaremiah Palmer headshotJaremiah Palmer ♦ Niles Brandywine
Senior ♦ Basketball

Palmer capped his high school career Saturday with 18 points, six rebounds and three steals as Brandywine defeated Detroit Old Redford 56-48 in the Division 3 championship game to earn the school’s first Finals title in boys basketball. He also had 12 points, five rebounds and a pair of steals in Brandywine’s 51-48 Semifinal victory over McBain two days earlier.

The 6-foot-1 forward averaged 13.8 points, 5.8 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game this season and started last year as a junior as well when Brandywine won its first Regional title and reached the Semifinals. He’ll play baseball this spring and played football earlier in his high school career.
