Especially for Students
The Stanford community is a great place to make lifelong friends and a wide variety of interpersonal connections. Most connections here on "the farm" are positive ones but there may be times when friends, colleagues and others are not as respectful as you would wish.
This Resource Guide provides an overview of the many resources Stanford has available for students. However, for comprehensive information, students are encouraged to consult:
- Stanford's SHARE Title IX website: Resources and Options
- Sexual Violence Support & Resources: Learn about options and resources
