After visiting Mills College I had a certain expectation for how my tour at Stanford would be. Let me just tell you I wasn’t expecting the tour to be what it was. The tour group was huge compared to the tour I got the day before with 4 people other than me in my tour group. That made it a little tricky to ask my questions since everyone else had questions of their own but I managed. My tour guide transferred to Stanford this year (his junior year) so when I asked him about the work load he gets in his classes he admitted that at times it can feel overwhelming but he is still trying to adjust from his former college. As a transfer student he is still getting to know his professors and the faculty there and form connections and relationships with his professors but he did say that the teachers want to create connections with their students and be able to provide the help that is needed both in and out of schooling. With the 1 to 23 student teacher ratio it is fairly easier to do so. At Stanford they have a health center for students called Vaden Health Center. After paying a health fee students can access various health services including a 45-50 minute therapy session. At Vaden their goal is to help students thrive with the environment they are put in. They try to make the health services as accessible to the students as they can so that the students can perform at their best.
