Stanford weiners listing ACADEMIC MAJOR on XC roster

Do you actually think they're the only school to do this?

It is almost as if the point of going to college is to get a degree, crazy I know....

Oh gaw. What a bunch of snots. Stanford features the major right next to the name of the student-athlete. While each school has for decades list majors way down on the bottom of the web page next to name of pet dog, favorite TV show, desert, ... Hah. Soooo superior!

This guy, former NXN champion, looks to become a Silicon Valley or Nike executive. I bet it happens for him.

you seem to be equally cool for actually catching that

Ooooo wow, other than the two Mech E's those majors look weak.

Q) What's worse than dealing with an ivy leaguer with a bag of chips on their shoulder?

A) Listening to the parents humble brag non-stop every day.

I'm surprised, well not really, how many had parents who went there.

Nepotism is alive and well.

Geez, why do they even list parents in the BIO. That is pathetic. What ever happened to earning your own way.

Alumni entry is pathetic! It diminishes the value of these degrees.

Mfers: NOT exactly your typical Diviskion1-A football team of dumb jocks, ghetto thugs, trailer-park rednecks, and Army baby killers.

This is a total diss of DI sports schools, non-Pacademic-9 schools (WSU, OSU, UO).

Disgusted at Stanford Cross Country's superior attitude towards others.

Most Canadian schools do this.

But then we are much smarter.

Uhhhhh, that's the whole purpose of going to university...

Are you under the impression that Stanford is an Ivy League school?

Stanford is NOT an Ivy.

Is human biology like kinesiology? Biology is abviously a pre med, dental, vet but what in the world is human biology.

Human Biology is the study of Humman Bowel Movements and it's effects on economics, business, and the environment.

Hummus Bowl Mgmt. is the study and taxonomy of food stuffs and their effect on the industrial revolution.

Human Biology

This major is designed to provide students with the fundamental courses required for entry into: schools of medicine, veterinary medicine, dentistry, and pharmacy; Ph.D. programs in the biomedical sciences; and biotech research, teaching, medical technology, patent law, physical therapy, nutrition, and nursing. The core classes required of all human biology majors provide the student with the basic principles that help us understand normal human physiology and the molecular basis of human disease. The course options in human physiology, human disease, and biomedical-related laboratories provide the students with educational breadth while still allowing them considerable flexibility in tailoring their course of study to suit their educational goals.

I walked by a guy at Home Depot yesterday wearing a Stanford Cross Country sweatshirt. I ask him if he had a kid at Stanford.

He said "No, I got the sweatshirt at the Goodwill."
