- Abstract
- Jacki Williams-Jones earned her BA in French from Stanford in 1976 and her master’s in 1977, and she went on to teach French. In this oral history, she speaks about her experience as one of eight girls who joined the Stanford Band the first year they allowed women. She describes her time as a Dolly and her love for her fellow squad members and the band community. She also mentions her performance in the Ram’s Head production of Guys and Dolls. She concludes by offering advice to current black students and sharing thoughts on how Stanford might work to attract and retain black students, including sharing guidelines with parents who want their children to go to college.
