In her address to the Board of Trustees in July 1904, Jane Stanford said, "Let us not be afraid to outgrow old thoughts and ways, and dare to think on new lines as to the future of the work under our care." Stanford’s 11th president, Marc Tessier-Lavigne, echoed these thoughts in his inaugural address in 2016: “When I reflect on Stanford’s 125-year history, I see a University that has pressed forward through thick and thin, gaining in stature as a leader in education and scholarship, to make increasingly important contributions to society and to human well-being. Thanks to over a century of inspired leadership, including by the distinguished presidents emeriti here today, Stanford has become the “University of high degree” its founders envisioned. Stanford’s preeminence derives from its bedrock dedication to fostering education, research, and creativity for the benefit of humanity. But I believe it also stems from its optimism, its resilience, and its courage to evolve.”
