Abstract/Contents

Abstract: Peter Chu (BS Electrical Engineering, 1986) reflects on his upbringing in Taiwan and his decision to go to Stanford. He then discusses his time at Stanford: moving in, choosing his major, his residential experience, dance groups, friendships, the campus atmosphere, and important faculty connections. Chu also speaks about his experience as an Asian student on campus, the influence of Okada and other Asian student organizations on his identity, and how his beliefs around diversity and activism have evolved over time. Chu talks about the impact of a bike accident his senior year and traces his path after Stanford: a job working at Oracle, Harvard Business School, co-founding two startups, managing a venture fund in Asia, and serving as CFO of BroadVision.
