Welcome to Stanford
We’re just a walk, a short ride, or a click away. Stanford lives its founding values when we connect with our communities next door – and across the globe.
Engage with Stanford
Stanford is proud to call the Bay Area home. We are committed to learning from our neighbors and enhancing the quality of life in our region. We value nurturing existing relationships and forging new ones in service of thriving communities for all.
All month, join in events at Stanford and around the Bay Area recognizing the contributions of Martin Luther King, Jr., as the nation celebrates his birthday. Activities, which start Jan. 14, include a Fireside Chat on Jan. 22 from 3 to 4:30 p.m. with Lerone A. Martin, director of Stanford’s Martin Luther King Jr. Research and Education Institute and Joyce Sackey, chief equity, diversity and inclusion officer and associate dean of Stanford School of Medicine.
