Land Acknowledgement
We start with a recognition that Stanford sits on the ancestral land of the Muwekma Ohlone Tribe. This land is of great importance to the Ohlone people and has been since time immemorial. Consistent with our values of community and diversity, we have a responsibility to acknowledge, honor, and make visible the university’s relationship to Native peoples.
