We wrote a chapter of the Stanford Tech History Project (@TechHistProject)'s Final Report, providing a highly detailed overview of tech recruiting on Stanford's campus (pages 17-57)
This included recommendations to improve tech recruiting for PIT careers:

Undergraduate students surveyed for this @TechHistProject report ranked @Wikipedia second place in positive societal impact among technologies and tech organizations. techhistory.stanford.edu/rep…

Skepticism also seems to be concentrated more in certain communities
For example, students who were on full financial aid had more negative opinions for every org on this list. Same with students who didn't identify as being "in tech":

The project surveyed more than 900 Stanford undergrads & found that Palantir's rep is tanked—it has the worst ratio of positive to negative views of any company. Almost no students felt positively about Palantir.

Hey hey! So proud to see @Wikipedia ranked as one of the technology projects having the most positive impact on society. After all, that’s exactly what it is here to do.

So excited to see this finally published! @nrmarda and I got the chance to work with incredible people to put together this study of tech at Stanford. Our team analyzed tons of data & documents (including a survey of 900 undergrads) to outline trends and make recommendations.
Our final report has been released! Read about how Stanford's tech ecosystem has changed over the past decade 👇

Feel so fortunate to have been part of this incredible team!
The Stanford Tech History Project released its final report on Monday about how tech at Stanford has changed over the past decade
I had the honor of co-directing this large & incredible team over the past 9 months with @juliaingram_
Here's a thread with some of my thoughts

Enjoyed reading the report of @Stanford's tech history in last decade & about the transformation of what was the career dev center into BEAM during my time 2013 to 2018. Proud of the impact. Thx @TechHistProject for a great & accurate portrayal of history. techhistory.stanford.edu/rep…

A great student project! This report has a wealth of data and great insights into the development of tech .@Stanford in the last decade.

Socially responsible tech rose into focus over Stanford's last decade: more than ever, students today care about where they work and what they do.
We're excited to see the advocacy of Reboot community members highlighted in @TechHistProject's new report:

The Stanford PIT Lab was proud to write the Recruiting section of this report! Check it out: techhistory.stanford.edu/rep…
The report was directed by @nrmarda and @juliaingram_, who launched this project in July 2020
Their work was informed by their experiences leading @StanfordPITLab & @StanfordDaily respectively. We are grateful for both of these organizations for contributing parts of the report

Finally, I want to give a huge +1 to all of the thank yous in this thread
I'm SO grateful to the 1,150+ people who contributed to this project & I truly believe the resulting report will be very valuable for future decision-makers and preserving history

We are immensely grateful to the section leads who made this report possible. These leads applied their significant experience within different parts of Stanford’s tech ecosystem to produce the final report

At the same time, I also saw how some external scrutiny could push people and organizations to be better versions of themselves
I would love to see Stanford's journalistic and PIT-focused student organizations take a more active role on this front in the future

One of my big takeaways was that Stanford is full of amazing people doing amazing tech-related things
There were all sorts of small nuggets of information that were fascinating to me
Like, I had no idea that Stanford has a very successful competitive cybersecurity team (p. 248)

So excited to be a part of this project.
I'm working to document Stanford's relationship with venture capital/funding over the past decade — if you have any thoughts on the topic (classes, professors, programs, etc.) or other comments to share, please reach out!
