Somehow "Cathedral and Bazaar" came to my mind when
comparing Stanford to Berkeley. |

An interesting Timetable in front of the Hewlett Teaching Center. |
Timetable: "The metal ring makes a complete rotation every
minute... the metal disc makes a complete rotation every hour..." |
Inevitable: Stanford Computer Science is housed in "Gates" building!
Believe me, the building itself is really nothing to look at. |

New building for Physics/Astro physics! |

In the center of the Stanford campus is the Memorial Church (built
in 1891, 12 years after the school was founded). |

and U.S. President Herbert Hoover. |

The Bing Wing of the Cecil H. Green Library. It was just restored
in 1999 (after being damaged in the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake). |
Sam sat beside names of many great men and women... |
... among them I can see the great Don Knuth. |

From the campus looking toward the Palm Drive. |
Palm Drive is a mile-long, palm tree-lined entrance to the campus. |
Outside the campus there is this University Avenue. I wouldn't
call this a "college town" as this is relatively
small-scaled. |
Iman's favorite stop: the Cheesecake Factory! |
