Laptop Check-Out
Twelve Macintosh lap-top computers and one PC lap-top computer are available for check-out by student-athletes on a first-come, first-served basis for use during road trips for Stanford competitions.
Missed Class Time
The Department’s policy is that a coach cannot require a student-athlete to attend practice if the student has a demonstrated and legitimate academic conflict (i.e., exam, presentation, field trip). A student-athlete with this type of conflict should inform their coach well in advance. If there is a problem the student should see their sport administrator or an advisor in the AARC.
PAE - Partners for Academic Excellence
Co-sponsored by Undergraduate Advising and Research (UAR) and the Athletic Department, PAE assists Stanford student-athletes in managing their demanding schedules and in utilizing their limited free time efficiently to ensure academic excellence. By grouping several student-athletes together from different sports based on a similar preliminary academic interest, the PAE program focuses on creating an academic community for specific first-year students. Each group has an undergraduate mentor and a graduate student mentor, which are likely to be current and former student-athletes. During the autumn quarter, PAE participants meet weekly as a study group to assist with the transition from high school to university study. In the winter, the groups more actively explore academics resources. Dinners with faculty members and Stanford alums who may share an academic or career interest are also part of the program. Freshmen have the opportunity, in a relaxed informal setting, to meet and talk with faculty who may otherwise be hard to approach. First-year student-athletes have the option of earning one-unit of academic credit for participation in the PAE program by completing course requirements that encourage students to take advantage of the numerous academic resources that will be beneficial to their Stanford career.
