Vision Stanford 2020
A formal community conversation on advancing public service at Stanford over the next ten years. Between 60 and 70 representatives of the student population (undergraduate and graduate), faculty, university staff, administrators, and alumni will collaborate to establish shared goals and priorities. The discussion will produce a roadmap for action toward the Stanford 2020 vision.


SATURDAY, APRIL 4

In each of nine focus area forums, panelists will highlight what impact the Stanford community is having in the area, and attendees will discuss what Stanford's role should be over the next ten years.
