About the Discussion

This discussion is intended particularly for graduate students, postdocs, and faculty, with consideration of reactions to the report, and recommendations for Stanford. We anticipate a lively, informative, and proactive session in terms of considering ways to improve our academic cultures to reduce gender and sexual harassment.

  • Prepublication versions of the summary and the full report are available for free download at this website.
