Preferred Citation note Stanford University, Board of Trustees, Meeting Records (SC1010). Department of Special Collections, Stanford University Libraries, Stanford, Calif. Arrangement note The materials are arranged in two series: 1. Records created prior to 2010; 2. Records created since 2010. Processing Information note Prior to 2010, Board of Trustee agendas, minutes, and supporting material were separated into three separate collections (Minutes--1011, Agendas--1010, Supporting Material--SC0027). In 2010, it was decided to keep all meeting materials intact in a single collection as received from the Board of Trustees. Administrative History The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University was established on November 11, 1885, by the Grant Founding and Endowing the Leland Stanford Junior University (the "Founding Grant"). The powers and duties of the Board derive from the Founding Grant, amendments, legislation, and court decrees. In addition, the Board operates under its own bylaws and a series of resolutions on major policy. Although the Founding Grant named the initial group of trustees, they did not hold meetings until 1898. Jane Stanford, the surviving founder of the university, served as president of the Board from 1898-1903. Regular meetings began in 1903 following Jane Stanford's decision to transfer oversight of the university to the Board. As custodian of the endowment and all the properties of Stanford University, the Board administers the university's invested funds, sets the annual budget, and determines policies for operation and control of the university. Among the powers given to the trustees by the Founding Grant is the power to appoint a president. As of 2012, Board membership is set at 35, including the President of the University, who serves as an ex officio member with voting privileges. Trustees serve five-year terms and are eligible for appointment to one additional five-year term. Standing committees of the Board include Academic Policy, Planning, and Management; Alumni and External Affairs; Audit and Compliance; Development; Finance; Land and Buildings; the Medical Center; and Trusteeship. Special committees include Athletics, Compensation, Investment Responsibility, and Litigation. Scope and Contents note The materials consist of Board of Trustees meeting agendas, minutes, and supporting materials. Subjects and Indexing Terms Stanford University -- History.

INSTITUTION Stanford Univ., Calif. Libraries. SPONS AGENCY Bureau of Libraries and Educational Technology (DHEW/OE), Washington, D. C. BUREAU NO BR-7-1145 PUB DATE Apr 71 GRANT OEG-1-7-071145-4428 NOTE 334p. EDRS PRICE EDRS Price MF-$0.65 HC-$13.16 DESCRIPTORS *Automation, Information Processing, *Information Retrieval, *Information Systems, Library Cooperation, Library Networks, *Library Research, *Library Technical Prdcesses, an Machine Systems, Time Sharing, University Libraries IDENTIFIERS BALLOTS, Bibliographic Automation Large Library Operations, *Library Automation AESTRACT The first phase of an ongoing library automation project at Stanford University is described. Project BALLOTS (Bibliographic Automation of Large Library Operations Using a Time-Sharing System) seeks to automate the acquisition and cataloging functions of a large library using an on-line time-sharing computer. The main objectives are to control rising technical processing costs and at the same t2me tc provide improved levels of service. Phase I produced a prototype system that operated in the library using typewriter terminals. Data preparation and data control units were established; regular library staff were trained in on-line input and searching. Aiter a nine month period of operation, the entire system was evaluated. The requirements of a production library automation system were then defined. Findings are presented on shared facilities, economy and file integrity, the performance of on-line searching, terminal performance, staff and resource commitments, transferability, and the human aspects of system development.

  • The University at a Glance About the University Stanford University
    About the University Stanford University n October 1, 1891, the 465 new students who were on Ohand for opening day ceremonies at Leland Stanford Junior University greeted Leland and Jane Stanford enthusi- astically, with a chant they had made up and rehearsed only that morning. Wah-hoo! Wah-hoo! L-S-J-U! Stanford! Its wild and spirited tone symbolized the excitement of this bold adventure. As a pioneer faculty member recalled, “Hope was in every heart, and the presiding spirit of freedom prompted us to dare greatly.” For the Stanford’s on that day, the university was the real- ization of a dream and a fitting tribute to the memory of their only son, who had died of typhoid fever weeks before his sixteenth birthday. Far from the nation’s center of culture and unencumbered by tradition or ivy, the new university Millions of volumes are housed in many libraries throughout the campus. drew students from all over the country: many from California; some who followed professors hired from other colleges and universities; and some simply seeking adventure in the West. Though there were many difficulties during the first months – housing was inadequate, microscopes and books were late in arriving from the East – the first year fore- told greatness. As Jane Stanford wrote in the summer of Stanford University 1892, “Even our fondest hopes have been realized.” The University at a Glance About the University Stanford University Ideas of “Practical Education” Stanford People Governor and Mrs. Stanford had come from families of By any measure, Stanford’s faculty – which numbers modest means and had built their way up through a life of approximately 1,700 – is one of the most distinguished in hard work.

  • Stanford University: a World-Class Legacy
    California’s Stanford University: A World-Class Legacy Author’s Note: This article “California’s Stanford University: A World-Class Legacy” is also a chapter in my travel guidebook/ebook Northern California Travel: The Best Options. That book is available in English as a book/ebook and also as an ebookin Chinese. Parallel coverage on Northern California occurs in my latest travel guidebook/ebook Northern California History Travel Adventures: 35 Suggested Trips. All my travel guidebooks/ebooks on California can be seen on myAmazon Author Page. By Lee Foster On October 1, 1891, Senator Leland Stanford and his wife, Jane, officially opened Leland Stanford Junior University. The school became one of the premier institutions of higher education and loveliest campuses in the West. For today’s traveler, headed for the San Francisco region in Northern California, Stanford University is a cultural enrichment to consider including in a trip. The University owes its existence to a tragic death while the Stanford family was on a European Trip in Florence, Italy. After typhoid fever took their only child, a 15- year-old son, the Stanfords decided to turn their 8,200-acre stock farm into the Leland Stanford Junior University. They expressed their desire with the phrase that “the children of California may be our children.” Years later the cerebral establishment is still called by some “The Farm.” Leland Stanford had used the grounds to raise prize trotter racehorses, orchard crops, and wine grapes. The early faculty built homes in Palo Alto, one neighborhood of which became “Professorville.” In a full day of exploration you can visit the campus, adjacent Palo Alto, and the nearby Palo Alto Baylands marshes of San Francisco Bay, a delight to the naturalist.

  • THE HAWAIIAN SILVERSWORDS Systematics, Affinities, and Phytogeographic Problems of the Genus Argyroxiphium
    THE HAWAIIAN SILVERSWORDS Systematics, Affinities, and Phytogeographic Problems of the Genus Argyroxiphium By DAVID D. KECK BERNICE P. BISHOP MUSEUM OCCASIONAL PAPERS VOLUME XI, NUMBER 19 HONOLULU, HAWAII PUBLISHED BY THE MuSEUM March 20, 1936 THE HAW AllAN SILVERSWORDS: Systematics, Affinities, and Phytogeographic Problems of the Argyroxiphium By DAVID D. KF;CK Carnegie Institution of Washington, Stanford University, California INTRODUCTION Theories as to the origin of the Hawaiian islands and the deriva­ tion of their flora and fauna have appeared with frequency and aroused the greatest interest among biologists. Probably no other region in the world has developed so extraordinary a degree of endemism, which, according to Hillebrand (9) 1, for the indigenous vascular plants is 75.93 percent. Much more recent figures for the indigenous flowering plants given by Campbell (5) reach the remark­ able figure of 9°04 percent! This endemism is directly connected with the fact that the Hawaiian Archipelago is the most isolated area of equal size in the world. There have been many advocates of the theory that the Hawaiian islands are of oceanic origin, that they were elevated from the bottom of the ocean by volcanic action, and that they have always been completely isolated. Others have taken the opposing view that the islands have not always been so isolated, but may even be considered of continental origin. Those with the latter viewpoint believe that the present archipelago represents but the tips of volcanic mountain masses superimposed upon a large block that has undergone sub­ sidence. For instance, Campbell (4) believes there may have been a more or less direct connection.

    2017 Undergraduate Fellows More than 400 Stanford students engaged in immersive service opportunities around the world during the summer of 2017. See a map illustrating where all of our Cardinal Quarter participants served. The students listed below are supported by the Haas Center for Public Service’s Undergraduate Fellowships Program. Advancing Gender Equity Fellow The Advancing Gender Equity Fellowship is a joint program with the Women's Community Center and enables students to learn about gender, diversity, and social justice through a summer practicum with a nonprofit organization or government agency addressing social, political, or economic issues affecting women. Jessica Reynoso, '20 (Public Policy); ACT for Women and Girls, Visalia, CA. Jessica worked closely with the Policy Director on several projects such as the Voter Engagement Campaign, which comprised of gathering, collating, and logging signatures for a petition, and phone banking registered voters in the Central Valley. Jessica managed teams who phone-banked, and identified which constituents needed to be followed up with for information regarding contacting their legislators and providing resources. Callan Showers, '19 (American Studies); Gender Justice, St. Paul, MN. As a legal intern at Gender Justice, a nonprofit legal and advocacy organization in St. Paul, Callan worked on everything from deposition summaries and discovery reviews to memos regarding transgender rights in schools and abortion access for women with public health insurance in Minnesota. She got an inside look into the legal field while also fighting for equal rights for people of all gender identities and sexual orientations. Made possible by individual donors to the Haas Center as part of the Cardinal Quarter program.
