Awesome Human Biology students! You did it! Made it through this entirely new territory of classes via remote learning at Stanford. Well done. The family and I biked around Stanford to gather pictures in the sunshine to send to you all. Wishing you all a wonderful summer. Sophomores and juniors, looking forward to seeing youContinue reading “Spring quarter classes done!”

I wrote to alumni on Friday to share theContinue reading “Remembering Don Kennedy”

Good morning, all! My daughter and I biked to campus yesterday to take pictures to give you some more glimpses of your beautiful university. It is really missing its students! As are we.

Coming in just under the wire to ensure an at least weekly blog. Not sure if you’ve found this, but my, how the bar has been lowered lately. Anyway, to start us off, our roses are about to bloom! Now lest one get any grandiose notions, our roses look fantabulous for about 2 weeks andContinue reading “The Homefront”

Hello All! We made it to the end of the first week of Stanford’s spring quarter and what that means in this house, for some reason, is that everyone collapsed onto a heap on the couch, waiting for our Doordash delivery. For our kids, this past week was spring break. Not clear it was markedContinue reading “Spring quarter, end of week 1”

Hello All! Tomorrow is the official start of spring quarter at Stanford. My husband and I rode our bikes all over campus this morning in the rain to take pictures to create this slideshow for our awesome HumBio students. We miss having you on campus!
