Everyone says they are from Chicago. Actually, they are from Outside of Chicago - unless they are in fact from the city proper - that is, if they have a ZIP code beginning with 606. The exception to this are students who say they hail from West Chicago, which is a suburb with an unfortunate name.
Chicago does not actually comprise the entire state, though it likes to think so. Corrupt politics are a fact of life in Chicago, but those from Chicago do not think much of it.
Students such as Deana Rutherford, Angie Martin, Howard Friedman, Laura Weiss, Tiff Bradley, Mike Orr, and Bill Mayeroff are from Chicago proper. They all went to Whitney Young, a high school in the West Loop region of the city.
