Interview with Adam Miller : Alumni Stories
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- Adam Miller (AB Sociology, 1996) shares memories of student life at Stanford in the 1990s, including his freshman dorm, Madera; the Jewish community he found on campus; and his work broadcasting Stanford games on KZSU, the student radio station, and the Stanford Cardinal Broadcast Network, a television station. He also describes his role as a resident assistant (RA), campus social life, the housing draw, and the origins of the Sixth Man Club. Moving on to discuss his academic experience, he explains his decision to pursue Sociology as a major and recalls a memorable class with Professor Joseph Berger. Miller also offers a picture of Stanford in the early days of the Internet, recalling his efforts to launch a startup company with a fellow student, and speaks about how he came to work at an education non-profit focused on charter schools.
