Funny about the pride vs humility issue about wearing a sweatshirt!

My son toured Stanford for the first time with his classmates on a choir tour to SFO and Stanford in early April, which was very cool since the trip had been planned for a year, and he had just received his acceptance...cool timing.

Anyway, I had given him $ to get a Stanford sweatshirt while there...he didn't end up getting one, yet several classmates did! I ordered him one online and he's worn it a few times. Also doesn't feel like "bragging". I ordered myself 2...1 that says Stanford Mom. I was told by both H and S to only wear it at home and not in public, because that would be "bragging" and or "cheesy". Ah well, maybe I can wear it at orientation!
