Stanford University 1 Stanford University,
famous as one of northern California’s several institutions of higher learning,
is sometimes called "the Harvard of the West." The closeness of Stanford to San
Francisco, a city thirty-two miles to the north, gives the university a
decidedly cosmopolitan (世界性的) flavor. 2 The students are enrolled
mainly from the western United States. But most of the fifty states send
students to Stanford, and many foreign students study here, as well. And
standards for admission remain high. Young men and women are selected to enter
the university from the upper fifteen percent of their high school classes. 3
Not only because of the high caliber (素质) of its students but also because
of the desirable location and climate, Stanford has attracted to its faculty
some of the world’s most respected scholars. The university staff has included
many Nobel prize winners such as Dr. Felix Bloch, Dr. Robert Hofstadter, and Dr.
William Shockley in physics, Dr. Author Kornberg and Dr. Joshua Lederberg in
medicine, and Dr. Paul J. Flory and Dr. Linus Pauling in chemistry. The Russian
novelist Aleksandr Solzhenistsyn has been in residence. Stanford’s undergraduate
school of engineering and its graduate schools of business, law, and medicine
are especially well-regarded. 4 What is student life like on "The
Farm" Culturally, the campus is a magnet for both students and citizens of
nearby communities. Plays, concerts, and operas are performed in the
university’s several auditoriums and in its outdoor theater, where graduations
are also held. Several film series are presented during the school year. Guest
lecturers from public and academic life frequently appear on campus. In the
evenings, many students gather to socialize in the Student Union’s coffee house;
here the beverages (饮料) and the atmosphere both have a decidedly European
flavor. For the sports-minded, the Stanford campus offers highly developed
athletic facilities. Team sports, swimming, and track and field activity
are all very much part or the Stanford picture. So are bicycling and
jogging. 5 In addition to financial support from alumni (校友), Stanford
receives grants from the government and from private philanthropic (慈善的)
foundations. In recent years, government grants have made possible advanced
studies in the fields of history, psychology,, education, and atomic energy. At
present Stanford is carrying out an ambitious building program, financed in part
by the Ford Foundation’s 25 million grant. Recently added to the campus are a
new physics building, new school of business, new graduate school of law, new
student union, and undergraduate library. Financial support from both private organizations and the government has made possible______
