Online Meetings
Meetings are virtual (on Zoom) to include our global membership. Attendees need to register only once for the entire 2023-24 series.
The registration link is provided in the monthly newsletter, which is emailed to all Stanford Parents' Club members.
You must be a member of Stanford Parents' Club to attend.
These meetings are an opportunity for Stanford Parents' Club members to hear about club updates and events followed by our Distinguished Speaker, typically a faculty member, who will present on an interesting topic of their expertise in an area of study/research and innovation.
In 2023-24, General Meetings will be held from 10 AM - Noon (Pacific) on the second THURSDAY of the month. These meetings start in October and go through May. (No meetings in December or January.)
