June '04 Newsletter Next Top

Dear Stanford Community in Washington State,

Put some sense and sensibility into your summer with AllLearn's
new course on Jane Austen and the creation of the English romance
novel. AllLearn is an alliance between Stanford, Oxford, and Yale
that provides lifelong learning opportunities for alumni.

This is the time of year when Stanford clubs elect new officers.
I'd like to recognize and thank Ken Hosac, '89, MS '98, as he
finishes up a two-year term as president of the Stanford Club of
Washington. We now enthusiastically welcome Doug Wake, '74, into
the presidency! Thank you to all of the local leaders who help
create a Stanford community in Washington year-round!

Events tend to slow down over the summer, so I'll not be sending
a newsletter to you in July. If you have any Stanford specific items
for the August newsletter, be sure to let me know. I hope you enjoy
the sunshine and the 4th of July holiday.

Until August,

Jen

Dear Washington State Stanford alumni and parents,

As you can see below, there is a lot of alumni activity in Washington
state this month! From a trip to the Frye art museum, to a men's
basketball game, to a trivia contest, there are many chances to
connect with Stanford friends.

If you’re thinking of a trip back to the Farm, Saturday, March 6 is
a day to consider. In addition to over 15 extraordinary faculty-taught
classes, this year’s Alumni Day program offers a glimpse of
alumni-owned art on display at the Cantor Arts Center, along with
performances by student actors, musicians, and filmmakers.
Alumni Day 2004

And don’t despair that Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow…for
the next six weeks of winter you can escape the cold by joining
Stanford’s Book Salon. This month’s selection is “Atonement,”
by Ian McEwan. Check out all of the lifelong learning opportunities
at Stanford Book Salon.

My best to you,

Jen
