<p>Nope. “Delusional” was among the unflattering terms applied to docfree in the USC forum when he made numerous statements there that inspired the term. But “don’t shoot the messenger”. ; )</p>
<p>What’s most amusing to me here is the supposed premise that we at Stanford need to be informed about our very powerful symbiotic relationship with our own community, and about our responsibilities with respect to that relationship. This has been the subject of thoughtful, ongoing dialogue among all of Stanford’s constituent groups for years, very long before the recent spate of press attention devoted to it, and it will continue as that relationship evolves. Many others, including the mayor of NYC, are very eager to emulate the synergies that Stanford enjoys with its surrounding community. We’re well aware that responsibilities come with this kind of power, and there are lots of smart, conscientious folks in every corner of our university deeply involved in guiding us in the exercise of it. But, thanks for the heads-up! ; )</p>
