<p>My friend went to Stanford’s reunion festivities yesterday. She said that the President of Stanford spoke and said that every year, a special campus notable is highlighted as part of the homecoming festivities. One year, it was Sandra Day O’Connor after she was appointed to the Supreme Court. Another year, it was a professor who had won the Nobel Prize the day before.
This year, he said, he was thinking about who should be selected for the honor when it came to him…and then he introduced Harbaugh and the key players in the USC game.
The funny part to me was that he said “Stanford will have more Nobel Prize winners and Supreme Court Justices, but a football victory like that one over USC may never happen again.”</p>
<p>Haha, probably true.</p>
<p>You wouldn’t believe the number of banners around campus yesterday about the win over SC! And there were TONS of crimson T-shirts celebrating the victory (whatever happened to Stanford “red”?) All in all, a wonderful day to be on campus! Jim Harbaugh is definitely the man of the hour.</p>
