If you are a member of the Class of 2009 and did not pick up your yearbook, it will be mailed to the address you provided when you purchased your yearbook. For all others, fall distribution is this Friday, October 16, 2009 (from 3PM-6PM) and Saturday, October 17, 2009 (from 1PM-3PM). It will take place on the first floor of Old Union. A limited number are still available for purchase for $80. If you did not graduate and wish to purchase a yearbook, you can do so next year at the fall distribution. More information will be posted around the beginning of the school year. If you are a senior and wish to purchase a yearbook, you can do so by mailing a check for $80, made out to The Stanford Quad, PO Box 18812, Stanford, CA 94309. Please include your name, contact information, US mailing address, and remember to sign the check.
Yearbooks were distributed last year. If you haven't yet picked up your yearbook, contact us.
Swimming
Yes. Visit our ordering page for information about purchasing your Quad online or by mail. Contact us for information if you ordered but did not yet pick up your copy.
Each Quad contains thousands of color and black & white photographs, sections on academic life, residential life, student life, campus organizations and Stanford sports. The senior section of the book contains portraits of the graduating class, coverage of commencement and senior dedications to congratulate seniors for their achievements. Books are approximately 350 pages long and are printed on premium, heavy-weight, glossy paper.
Fleet Street
The Stanford Quad is a student-run organization that publishes the Stanford undergraduate yearbook. We do not receive any funding from the University and are fully funded by book, dedication, and commercial advertising sales.
Yes, we do have select years of past Quads for purchase. Visit our ordering page for a list of available editions. Note: We only do one print run of each edition and cannot reprint if we run out.
The Band
We do a single print run of the Quad each year based on the number of orders we receive by January. Quads are never reprinted, so once we run out of a particular edition, they are gone forever. We do order a very small overage each year, but the best way to ensure your family has a copy of the Quad is to order your copy the year it comes out.
Not at all! The Quad aims to capture the entire Stanford experience. It does not focus only on senior activities, although the senior class is the only one represented through individual portraits. The Quad has hundreds of pages dedicated to everything from San Francisco and where we escape to locally to campus details such as events, architecture, art and the social scene. Overall, the Quad strives to represent life on the Farm for all undergraduates.
Commencement
Seniors were already notified by email with their portrait sessions. There were sessions in the fall and winter quarters. Absolutely no purchase is necessary to appear in the yearbook. Visit our senior portrait page for more information.
No. Senior dedications generally use personal photos, whether professionally taken or not.
If you have pictures that would be great for the yearbook, we'd like to see them. You can submit them to us through our submit page, but there is no guarantee we'll put them in the yearbook.
