Stanford University is a place where pioneering spirit meets 21st-century possibility.

Announcements

Spring 2024 tours and programs for prospective undergraduates (updated 2/12/2024).

We strongly encourage prospective undergraduates wishing to visit campus to consider a visit (if possible) that does not fall during the period from March 16 through April 14, when visitor volume is high but student activity and tour availability is limited by final exams, Stanford's own Spring Break, and the beginning of the Spring academic Quarter. These dates fill up quickly. Additional space will be added if/as student staffing allows. The Office of Undergraduate Admission offers a variety of tours and programs – both virtual and in-person – for prospective undergraduate students and their supporters, with expanded offerings on Mondays and Fridays. Additional programming generally includes virtual offerings on a weekly basis. Tours are provided to qualifying organized groups from Tuesday-Thursday based upon availability; group visits require advance booking. The Stanford Visitor Center is generally open from Monday through Friday from 9:00am-5:00pm (with the exception of federal holidays and some breaks between quarters) to provide information about visiting campus.

Millbrae – served by Caltrain Fremont – served by the Line U East Bay Express Union City – served by the Dumbarton Express

Caltrain  connects San Francisco and San Jose (including both airports) with a stop in Palo Alto. Attendees using Caltrain should get off at the Palo Alto station.

How It Works

• APPLY to attend our 8-week program.

My advice to Summer Session students is that you should live the Stanford experience to the fullest and attend as many events as you can. Amidst the prevailing uncertainty, I am certain of one thing: if I hadn't explored all those unique educational opportunities, and connected with professors, students, and guest speakers from all over the world, I would not be as happy and fulfilled as I am now.

Driving and Parking

Trying to describe how to drive onto the Stanford campus and park can be quite a challenge, especially since construction projects change the available routes almost daily. For driving to our location on the Stanford campus, the closest freeway exits are Alpine Road from Interstate 280 and University Avenue from Highway 101. You should park in Parking Structure 2 or the Roble Underground lot and then walk to the Durand Building from there.

Parking permits are required everywhere on campus, but metered parking is available in the ground level of the parking structure.

Walking to the Durand Building

From the parking structure, proceed southeast down Panama Street. Panama Street ends at Morris Way and turns into Panama Mall.

At the corner of Panama and Morris, the Durand Building is visible to the left across the small mall area. Walk over to Durand and down the staircase into the basement.

Once inside Durand via the staircase, Durand 011 is down the central hallway on the right. The elevators and the restrooms are halfway down the central corridor on the left.

Update to students regarding White Plaza

Dear students,

We are writing with an update regarding the encampment on White Plaza and related issues. This comes as all of us have been following the troubling scenes of confrontation and physical conflict that have been occurring at many university campuses around the country.

Our priorities as Stanford leaders remain the same: to ensure the physical safety of students and the prevention of violence; to support the free expression of ideas and meaningful discussion of challenging issues; and to create a campus environment in which students of all backgrounds and identities are able to live and study successfully. Balancing these priorities in the current environment is challenging but important.

In this message we want to focus on three things: (1) the safety environment on campus, (2) university policies relating to the encampment, and (3) the efforts underway at Stanford to advance discourse across disagreement.

Campus safety and security

Through the many recent events that have occurred nationally, we are grateful that our campus has remained relatively peaceful physically. We continue working to support a safe environment for everyone and are monitoring the situation closely so that we can respond promptly to any developments.

One incident of concern occurred last Friday evening when the Department of Public Safety arrested a non-Stanford affiliate on White Plaza who created a disturbance, antagonized students at a vigil for those who have died in Gaza, and refused to leave when asked. We are deeply concerned about such incidents and are thankful there have been very few of them. We continue to remind visitors to our campus that they may be subject to criminal and/or civil liability for their activities here. There also have been a handful of complaints about interactions between participants in the encampment and passersby.

We want to remind everyone to avoid interactions that may escalate into physical confrontation. Following people, invading their personal space, or otherwise intimidating others (particularly on the basis of identity) unnecessarily increases fear and unease among members of our community and in some cases may violate the law.

In one other matter from last weekend, multiple instances of graffiti on university structures were reported. While we have not yet determined responsibility, these acts are being investigated and will be prosecuted, both criminally and through university disciplinary policies as relevant. These acts are damaging to our campus, they often are not easily remedied, and doing so requires the time and effort of workers who must be diverted from their normal work in support of the university.

The events of recent weeks do not change the fact that everyone in our community, of all backgrounds and beliefs, is valued and deserves to be supported. That includes Jewish and Israeli students; Muslim, Arab, and Palestinian students; and students of all faiths, traditions, and nationalities. We continue to offer resources for those who are seeking support and assistance in these unsettling times. We also have reporting mechanisms for those who experience acts of bias or harassment on campus. The First Amendment protects a wide latitude of speech, including some very offensive speech. But the university will continue to pursue action in cases of unlawful and constitutionally unprotected speech or conduct that violates the rights of others.

Policies relating to the encampment

Although the encampment in White Plaza remains limited in scope and has not escalated to more severe disruption of university activities as has occurred on some other campuses, it is important to reiterate that the encampment violates university policies.

It violates our policy on overnight camping, which is in place for the safety of our community members. Even during the daytime, the encampment also violates our policies on the use of White Plaza. These policies are intended to offer student organizations equitable access to White Plaza and are violated when one group chooses to occupy a space for its purposes alone. The university’s restrictions on the use of amplified sound are also important to prevent disruption of other activities.

Student disciplinary cases for these policy violations are proceeding through the Office of Community Standards (OCS), which provides students due process in the resolution of their cases. Additional names of students violating university policies are in the process of being submitted now. We want to be clear that not just sleeping in the tents, but also active participation in the maintenance and operation of the encampment, is a policy violation. Those referred to OCS may have their diplomas held while their cases are processed. Students should be aware that suspension for one or more quarters is a possible outcome. There are ample alternative channels for students to express their ideas without violating university policies.

We also wish to remind Voluntary Student Organizations (VSOs) and university units that the use of funds or other resources provided by the university to support the violation of university policies is not allowed. Such actions may subject a VSO to the university’s Student Group Accountability Process, and may subject university units to review for violation of the Code of Conduct. We encourage VSOs to participate in free expression activities that are in line with university policies.

Discourse across disagreement

Many students and other members of our community understandably have strong feelings and disagreements about the situation in the Middle East. We are encouraged by how many students have chosen to attend substantive academic programming on these issues in the past few weeks. Hundreds of students have attended discussions and debates convened by our academic centers and programs where there has been vigorous debate – and no disruptions.

Last week, for example, in the Democracy and Disagreement course led by Deans Paul Brest and Debra Satz, Alon Tal (a visiting fellow in the Israeli Studies Program who is a former member of the Israeli parliament) and Salam Fayyad (former prime minister of the Palestinian Authority) participated together in a class session. They discussed issues related to the conflict in front of an engaged, passionate, and peaceful audience of more than 500 students and others. While in the last several months there have certainly been examples of hateful and intolerant speech on campus, we are heartened by the participation of students in these meaningful conversations.

We want to encourage the continued focus of our community on critical inquiry and constructive dialogue across disagreements. Everyone has a part to play in that. The encampment, with its rope lines and perimeter of tents, is physically set up not to invite discussion but to shut out those who disagree. At the same time, though changing conditions in safety or the level of disruption could necessitate a different approach, in observing other universities we are concerned about how the disproportionate use of force against otherwise peaceful protesters can escalate tensions and lead to even more extreme polarization and conflict on campus.

The true work of the university is the search for knowledge, which involves engaging deeply with those who disagree, grappling with complexity and nuance, and searching for answers together. We are encouraged by how many students, staff, and faculty are engaging in these ways, and we hope to continue to provide more platforms and mechanisms for this in the months to come.

• Stanford submits ‘deeply disturbing’ photo of campus anti-Israel protester wearing Hamas headband to FBI
• View Author Archive

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

Stanford University officials have sent the FBI a viral photo of a protester donning a green headband known to be worn by Hamas terrorists during a demonstration on campus.

The prestigious northern California college has, like other universities across the country , seen an anti-Israel encampment erected on its White Plaza with students demanding the school divest its finances from companies associated with Israel.

A photograph from the demonstrations has circulated online that showed an unidentified man who “appeared to be wearing a green headband similar to those worn by members of Hamas,” the school  said in a statement .

“We find this deeply disturbing, as Hamas is designated a terrorist organization by the United States government. We have not been able to identify the individual but have forwarded the photo to the FBI,” officials added.

A Stanford spokesperson told The Post the university had nothing to add to the statement on Thursday.

A photo released by Jewish student activists shows the spectacled protester using his phone wearing a black mask over his face and a green headband with white Arabic writing on it.

The Post has reached out to the FBI for comment.

Stanford President Richard Saller and Provost Jenny Martinez said Monday the student encampment violates policies that prohibit overnight camping on campus. 

The university has submitted the names of students caught in violation to the Office of Community Standards (OCS) for disciplinary proceedings, the school leaders said.

Student protesters from Stanford Students for Justice in Palestine claimed in an Instagram post that the university “is actively discriminating against Palestinian, Arab, Muslim, and anti-Zionist Jewish students using their internal disciplinary process.”

In an open letter to school administrators Monday, a group called Jews for Stanford  demanded  the university take great legal and disciplinary action against the protesters, following the example of other  schools like Columbia  and clearing out the camp.

“Other colleges across the country have begun arresting and disciplining malicious student and non-student agitators, setting an important precedent. We, Jews and non-Jews alike, call on Stanford to follow suit,” the letter states.

Follow The Post’s coverage of the pro-terror protests at colleges across the US:

• Tear gas sprayed at UCLA encampment as cops face off with anti-Israel protesters wielding fire extinguishers
• Iranian college offers free tuition to US students expelled for participating in anti-Israel protests: ‘Our people’
• MAP: US colleges where students have been arrested over anti-Israel protests

The letter, which has been co-signed by more than 30,000 people, included a link to the photo of the protester in the headband.

“Individuals dressed openly as members of a terrorist organization is unacceptable and must be dealt with swiftly and harshly,” the authors wrote.

“Not doing so sets a dangerous standard, as no citizen should have to worry about distinguishing between individuals merely dressed as terrorists and true terrorists who seek to deal us serious bodily harm.”

Stanford University submits photo of encampment protester wearing Hamas headband to FBI

The image shows a male sitting at a table on his phone while wearing a green headband that looks very similar to the type worn by hamas terrorist fighters.

NYPD clears anti-Israel encampment, make arrests at Fordham University

The school said protesters formed an encampment inside a university building early Wednesday morning and interfered with operations.

Officials at Stanford University submitted a photo of someone on campus wearing a green headband worn by Hamas terrorist fighters to the FBI as the school struggles to reign in anti-Israel protesters camping overnight on school property. 

Like at other universities across the country, anti-Israel students at Stanford have created an encampment in the White Plaza portion of the northern California college campus to protest Israel's military offensive in the Gaza Strip. 

A photo of someone at the encampment wearing a green headband, a face covering and glasses eventually came to the attention of school administrators. 

"We have received many expressions of concern about a photo circulating on social media of an individual on White Plaza who appeared to be wearing a green headband similar to those worn by members of Hamas," the school said in a Wednesday statement. "We find this deeply disturbing, as Hamas is designated a terrorist organization by the United States government. We have not been able to identify the individual but have forwarded the photo to the FBI."

A university spokesperson declined to comment on the matter to Fox News Digital. 

Fox News Digital has reached out to the FBI.

In a Monday message, Stanford President Richard Saller and Provost Jenny Martinez said the student encampment violates polices that prohibit overnight camping on campus. The university has submitted the names of students caught violating campus policies to the Office of Community Standards (OCS) for disciplinary proceedings, they said. 

Protest organizers have decried the university's response to the student protests. 

"Stanford is actively discriminating against Palestinian, Arab, Muslim, and anti-Zionist Jewish students using their internal disciplinary process," they wrote on social media. 

A letter dated Monday to school administrators called on Stanford to take a harder stance on antisemitic behavior by following the lead of other schools like Columbia University to remove the protesters.

"Other colleges across the country have begun arresting and disciplining malicious student and non-student agitators, setting an important precedent," the letter said. "We, Jews and non-Jews alike, call on Stanford to follow suit."

The letter, authored by Jewish students on campus and signed by more than 28,000 people, linked to the photo sent to the FBI. 

"Individuals dressed openly as members of a terrorist organization is unacceptable and must be dealt with swiftly and harshly," the authors wrote. "Not doing so sets a dangerous standard, as no citizen should have to worry about distinguishing between individuals merely dressed as terrorists and true terrorists who seek to deal us serious bodily harm."

Students at Stanford to face consequences for ‘camp-in demonstrations' amid pro-Palestine protests

Universities across the nation are reacting to students' pro-Palestine protests on campus.

At USC, administrators have now cancelled commencement ceremonies citing safety concerns.  Others, including Stanford, are warning students of consequences for so-called “camp in demonstrations.”

The number of protesters at White Plaza has grown in just the last three days. There are now 23 tents despite a warning from the university that students who camp here overnight could be expelled.

Those there say they’re fighting for peace in Palestine.

“The genocide has been occuring for 200 plus days and we want to stand for peace and call for a cease fire,” Ines, a student protester, said.

Demonstrators are also calling for Stanford to divest in companies including Chevron, HP and Lockheed Martin, that students claim are supporting military efforts against the Palestinian people.

“These companies have ties to Israel. For example, Lockheed Martin supplies weaponry and is transporting weapons to be used against the Palestinian people,” Ines said.

The call to action is getting strong support campus wide. Preliminary results of a recent student election found more than 70% of undergrad and grad students supported the university issuing a statement on divestment.

Meanwhile, the university has emailed and handed out dozens of letters to students warning students camping there overnight violates university policies and they could face suspension.

The university did not confirm Monday if any protesting students have been suspended or expelled.

At USC, the university cancelled the main commencement because of security concerns after protests there.

And Cal Poly Humboldt shut down the campus and switched to online learning after students barricaded themselves inside two buildings last week.

“I think other universities will use remote learning to manage protests on campus but it strikes me as an odd response, this is not a snow storm and there is no violence,” Omar Wasow, assistant professor of political science at UC Berkeley, said. 

At Sonoma State, protesters plan to camp out for a third night and as they call for an end to the violence in Gaza.

Protesting students at Berkeley continue to sleep in tents in front of Sproul Hall, joining forces with students at campuses across the nation, hoping their unity will elevate their message and lead to change.
