Abstract/Contents

Abstract: Glenn Golden (AB Economics, 1975) explains why he was drawn to Stanford, both as a student and as an athlete. He describes what it was like to play on the Stanford men’s tennis team in the 1970s, and he explains his decision to major in economics. Throughout the interview, Golden sheds light on the socio-political thinking of the time, recalling that he and his classmates were actively “cheering on Nixon’s downfall.” Golden talks about his life after Stanford, including his time playing professional tennis with his father. At the end of the interview, Golden expresses his delight to be back on campus and reflects on how inspiring it is to be at Stanford, saying, “Being here, it always feels like I’m surrounded by excellence.”
