Starting grad school in the fall and would love to maximize my two years in Palo Alto at such an amazing university. I'm curious to hear what the alumni have to say about anything they look back on and really miss.

I was wondering whether it is open during the summer quarter with a Stanford student ID. Thanks!

Can we wear crew neck sweat shirts? Or does it have to be a scrub/ under scrub? Asking before I purchase bc I hate the way scrub tops fit fit

Did anyone that applied for single graduate housing rolling assignments after July 2 receive an answer? I was only able to apply on July 10 and I am wondering if I have any chance of getting assigned until August.

I have been fostering these guys for the past few weeks after they were found abandoned in a mobile home park. Though timid, they are very sweet and cuddly if you give them lots of petting. They love to play and are not aggressive towards people at all. They need a loving home with patient & caring people. They are a bonded pair so we hope for them to be adopted together. Located in Morgan Hill/Gilroy. Please comment here or send me a message if you are interested, or share this post with anyone you know who would consider adopting!

I was really excited to see that Jeremy Pelt would be performing at this year’s annual jazz festival, but tickets were already sold out before I could buy. Does anyone know if there is somewhere I can buy resold tickets, or is there anyone who is willing to sell tickets to me?

I'm a PhD student looking to take a technical painting course, wondering if there's something affordable in the area. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I'd like to learn civil engineering of stone masonry as I've always found stone architechture to be beautiful. Most schools only teach analysis of steel, concrete and plastics and some other metals. But I'd like to learn about stone architecture, different kinds of stones and stone structures -- including sandstone and arches and columns. Given that much of Stanford is made of stone, I'd assume the school has courses on structural analysis or materials science for stones and stone masonry?

I'm interested in doing a masters degree in civil engineering or in architechture somewhere, I'm doing engineering physics for undergrad.

edit I think the course would need to be a geology course, probably structural geology. The motivation behind this idea is that limestone is burned to produce concrete -- causing c02 emissions. What if we just built with limestone instead? Maybe I'm missing something.

I’m in the final year of my PhD with several year work experience and am considering applying to Stanford GSB.
Is a Stanford MBA worth it after a PhD, or is it better to go straight into industry?
Does it significantly improve executive-level career opportunities and compensation?
How realistic is full financial aid or a full scholarship at Stanford GSB?
Also, What does Stanford GSB value most in MBA applicants with a PhD-leadership experience, extracurricular impact, career progression, GPA, test scores, or something else?

I’d love to hear from people.

Hello,

I will be at Stanford Hospital quite a bit over the next few weeks. I was looking for tips on places to hide out and work while in the vicinity. I live 2 hours away.

Need a good signal for the hotspot.

Need comfortable seating and a table.

Preferably well lit

Preferably not loud.

Thank you.

Hello 👋🏻 I'm trying to buy a coffee shop gift card for my friend studying in Stanford. Could anyone recommend me a popular coffee place Stanford students go to on the campus or nearby?? Thank you💪🏻

I just got my 2nd lottery results after the 1st said that I was not assigned to any housing...and they still said they have no housing for me. I said yes to any apartment (couple, no children) and I'm medium priority.

It says in the application that, if I say I'm open to any housing option, I'm guaranteed a home, but they just declined me for a second time. Has anyone dealt with this? Now I have to find a new place asap, and I'm afraid this has ruined my chances in the future of getting back onto Stanford housing (once I go off-campus).

Let me know if anyone has had any success dealing with this or getting housing assignments during the rolling admission. Kind of freaking out here.

I recently started a postdoc at Stanford and have been feeling pretty isolated. The people I’ve met here so far aren’t really my scene, and I’d like to meet others who are into punk, pop-punk, emo, alternative rock, or similar music.

Would anyone be interested in going to concerts or smaller local band shows together? I’d also appreciate any recommendations for venues, local bands, or good ways to follow the Bay Area live music scene.

Hey all,

I'm an incoming frosh looking to study MechE, and I want to know what I can do from as early on to get an internship 2027 summer. I know it's early, but I want to try my best to contribute towards my education costs. What are some steps I should take? I don't really mind what field the internship is in, as I'm also going to be exploring other classes at Stanford.

What do you suggest?

I am a rising sophomore and didn't apply for internships this summer since i wanted to focus more on research and honing in on my skills. I have no idea what I should be doing or how when it comes to apply to internships and being successful. Anyone have any tips? I am mostly looking for tech or biotech roles.

As an incoming freshman, what are some important EE classes to take for my first year, and in which quarters should I try and take them in? I'm interested in computer architecture / hardware and low latency design, so any classes relating to those or building up to those subjects as prereqs would be nice.

As for other related classes, I'm still debating between the 50/60 math series and what intro to programming class I should take (CS106 a/b or smthn else), so any feedback on that will also be appreciated.

I just need a little help with something, I got a couple questions

Hi guys,

Hi, for those of you who have been recently hired, how soon after clearing the background check and physical exam requirements did you receive your I-9 emails from Workday? TIA

Found an AirPod case at the train station (North Bound)

I keep seeing online that EE and CS department does not allow CAships for MS students in their first quarter, but other sources say this isn’t necessarily true and that some exceptions can be made if you know a professor. How true is this? Will the department be super strict on this if a professor has given note they’d be interested in hiring you as a CA?
