Entrepreneurial Thought Leaders Seminar

For the past year or so I’ve been following a podcast of a lecture series here at Stanford called Entrepreneurial Thought Leaders Seminar. They have had a bunch of great speakers from a number of fields involving entrepreneurs. In fact, this series is part of the reason I applied. I knew that when I got to campus I was going to try to find this series, it turns out it’s a single unit seminar class. So I signed up.

Yesterday when I went to the info session with a nearly full house, I took an empty seat near the front. I talked to my neighbor a bit before it the program started. Afterwards I introduced myself, when he said his name was Ed, I guessed his last name. It turns out we both went to the same high school, separated by 4 years. The only times our paths crossed there was at a math competition. So it’s funny to meet again here, by chance. Plus when I was in Chile this summer, I met his roommate from college on the ski lift, who is also a student here. It’s a small world.
