Alternative Spring Breaks @ Stanford
Service. Learning. Social Change.

Alternative Spring Breaks (ASB) @ Stanford are immersive service-learning programs that expose students to pressing social and cultural issues through community engagement, experiential education, direct service, group discussions, assigned readings, and reflective activities. The program’s vision is to empower students to become informed advocates for social change—locally, nationally, and globally.

ASB is a student-led Voluntary Student Organization (VSO) at Stanford University and an affiliate of the Haas Center for Public Service. As a proud Break Away Chapter Program, ASB would not be possible without the generous support of ASSU Special Fees.

Impact
Transforming students into lifelong advocates for social issues.

ASB programs have inspired students to remain engaged with the social and cultural issues they explore—leading to the creation of student groups, the pursuit of new academic paths, and even long-term career shifts rooted in public service and social advocacy.

History
The first ASB trip took place in 1987, organized by staff at what was then the Public Service Center (now the Haas Center for Public Service). As student interest grew, ASB evolved into a registered, student-run organization. In 1996, a winter-quarter course was added to enhance learning ahead of the spring break trips.

By the late 2000s, ASB expanded its reach:

In 2008, Impact Abroad launched, offering global service-learning trips during the summer.

In 2012, ThanksGiving Back was introduced as a new opportunity during Thanksgiving break.

At its peak, ASB offered up to 18 courses and trips per year, continuing to be a transformative experience for hundreds of Stanford students.

Recognition
ASB has earned national acclaim from Break Away, including awards for:

Alternative Spring Break Program of the Year

Curriculum-Based Alternative Break of the Year

At Stanford, ASB was honored with the Lyons Service Award in 1998 and an Outstanding Achievement Award from the Dean of Students in 2002. The program celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2012, marking a legacy of impact and leadership in public service education. In 2025, ASB was recognized by Stanford Report for the incredible programs and opportunities it provides to the student community.

Shotokan Karate is a weaponless martial art developed in Okinawa and Japan that emphasizes power and efficiency in combat. Skilled karateka defeat their opponents with a minimal number of techniques and effort, which is particularly useful when facing multiple opponents. JKA Shotokan is distinguished from other martial arts by the linearity and strength of its punches, blocks, and kicks. Precise techniques, accompanied by mastery and focus of energy flows and a deep knowledge of the body's vital points, make this karate style a comprehensive system for self-defense and combat.

Our dojo is a member of the international Japan Karate Association. This means our instruction is based on the teachings of the first pioneers of karate in Japan supplemented by the scientific analysis of later masters at the main dojo. JKA students have access to numerous published resources including books, articles, and YouTube videos. More importantly, your JKA belt rank is recognized in hundreds of dojos all over the United States and the world should you wish to travel and train or move to another city. We strive to train students of all backgrounds as competent practitioners of JKA Shotokan Karate.

Stanford SigEp's mission is to advance our community values of inclusion, community welfare, and academic and social enrichment. These values guide the totality of our actions from our individual lives to our member interactions to our community engagement and beyond.

Inclusion

Community for all. We aim to build and foster a Stanford community actively and intentionally inclusive to all people based on mutual understanding, compassion, and empathy. We recognize the history of elitism and discrimination that has existed in Greek life, and with this in mind we are diligent in dismantling these attitudes and rectifying their past oppression. Our community of inclusion extends from within our chapter into the Stanford community and beyond. To this end, we pursue the following goals:
Each member's diverse experiences compose an integral part of the chapter. Through elevating their stories, we aim to ensure that all members from their different backgrounds are each other's greatest advocates to succeed and lead in the chapter.
We strive to deepen our existing relationships and build new bonds with organizations representing BIPOC, FLI, international, and LGBTQ+ students to regularly cosponsor academic, philanthropic, and social events.
Our community extends beyond Stanford--we seek to grow our commitments to social movements and organizations working for inclusion through fundraising, organizing, and participating.
Our recruitment priority is on actively appealing to underrepresented students early and consistently and ensuring that we design our fraternity as a space where they see themselves.
We ensure the continuity and growth of our no-questions-asked dues aid policy. Cost has never been a barrier to SigEp and never will be.

Community welfare

All for community. Our organization finds its place within a rich environment of its surrounding communities. In a symbiotic relationship with those around us, we emphasize not only being intentional citizens who support university and fellow organization sponsored events, but also at the same time actively introducing our own sets of initiatives to further community engagement both in a university and local context. As many ResX neighborhoods will be called home by our members, contributing proactively and often to the neighborhood system is a guiding principle for our members. We prioritize these values on an organizational level in order to cultivate personal stewardship among our members in continuously showing communal involvement beyond their time at the university.



Academic and social enrichment

We recognize that we each chose Stanford first and foremost to develop our intellects alongside other like minded and bright individuals, and Stanford SigEp positions itself uniquely at the service of this intent. As an organization of students, our chapter affirms its members' wide array of academic interests and supports their academic journeys, placing it front and center. By having all class levels represented within our tight knit community, we aim to offer invaluable mentorship in all spheres, mentorship that extends well beyond one's undergraduate career.

Forming a solid group of diverse individuals creates opportunities to develop fundamental skills that lend themselves to facets of student life beyond the classroom. The core of our social programming focuses on the personal growth of the individual in an inclusive environment to build lasting bonds and form a lifelong community. To this end, we prohibit pledging and instead ensure that each member carries the same weight as any other. We do not tolerate any ill directed pressure and instead encourage our members towards personal achievement and success. Every one of our sponsored events is set forth with the clear intention towards developing our members as mentally, physically, and emotionally healthy members of the university.

These goals are accomplished through volunteerism and fundraising and are fostered through collegial interaction among participating business schools. Seven West Coast business schools participate in C4C and compete annually in three categories: volunteer hours, fundraising, and a weekend sports competition hosted by Stanford each April. The results in each of these three categories are tallied and weighted, and the school that scores the most points wins the coveted "Golden Briefcase".

GSB's C4C Chapter has traditionally worked with Special Olympics of Northern California, Boys and Girls Club of the Peninsula, and East Palo Alto Tennis and Tutoring. Starting in 2015, C4C counts volunteer hours at any local nonprofit.

The Stanford GSB Family Business Club is a home for those who want to build enduring, sustainable enterprises that often fall outside of the traditional Silicon Valley VC-fueled growth.

We exist to empower GSB students who are committed to creating or scaling lasting and impactful businesses that transcend generations. Our mission is to provide a collaborative space for learning and growth as we explore the unique opportunities and challenges of long-term institutions such as family-owned businesses. The business model of such institutions often differs from that of startups or large corporations, and it is our goal to give GSB students the opportunity to fill in that gap through meaningful learning experiences on this markedly different framework.

As a club, we work with students, faculty, alumni, and the broader Stanford community to support our members’ journey in forging lasting legacies. To achieve this purpose, we provide unique opportunities for connection and collaboration; educational and career development resources; workshops on key issues specific to family enterprises, such as governance, succession, and innovation; speaker events with family-business leaders; and a network of peers and mentors who share interest in generational enterprises. It is our mission to equip students with the tools and resources to navigate the unique challenges of family-owned businesses, foster a strong community of shared experiences and mutual growth, and empower our members to build lasting legacies.

Every year, near the middle of spring quarter, the entire GSB community awaits with bated breath the most spectacular--nay, only--quasi-artistic performance to be put on by the business school. The annual GSB show is a long-standing tradition here at Stanford. It is entirely student-written and student-run, and consists of videos, skits, and hilarious song and dance numbers, all designed to bring a bit of humor (that's humour for the Europeans among us) and wit to an institution that, uhm, can use it!

Use the GSB Show as a forum to exact your own personal revenge on, or to celebrate, your D&D professor or that overeager guy in the front row who had to be carried away for a dislocated shoulder caused by hand-raising enthusiasm. Or simply use the Show to exhibit all the artistic skills that have lain dormant in you throughout the year here at the GSB (and they will). People are still talking about that horror film of fall quarter "The D&D Project" and our opening song and dance number "Livin' La Vidalakis".

Talent and experience are welcome AND APPRECIATED, but not at all necessary. If you're interested in writing, performing, directing or crewing the Show, or if you just want to see what it's all about, follow the sounds of uncontrolled laughter.

Healing Strokes hopes to facilitate relaxation-based art therapy for stroke patients and their carers with the goal of helping alleviate post-stroke depression often experienced during recovery. Post-stroke depression and related anxiety affects about a third of all stroke survivors, yet many hospitals often lack the proper mental wellness resources needed to address this issue. Under the guidance of neurologist Dr. Nirali Vora and occupational therapist Julie Muccini, we have crafted a relaxation-based art therapy curriculum using an integrated patient-carer team approach. By facilitating creative-art based therapy workshops, we hope undergraduates would be able to gain experience cultivating empathy-based communities, helping to alleviate depressive symptoms among stroke survivors and increasing relief amongst caregivers. We hope to create an undergraduate community that is challenged to engage in discussions of ethical practices both with therapy and with patients as a whole.

By establishing a welcoming space for creative outlet, Healing Strokes hopes to alleviate depressive symptoms among stroke survivors and provide relief for caregivers.

1) Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) is a diverse group of students, faculty, staff, and community members at Stanford University, organized on principles to promote justice, human rights, liberation, and self-determination for the Palestinian people.
2) SJP is a space comprised of both Palestinian and non-Palestinian students, engaged in self-determination and solidarity, respectively. Within SJP, we defer to the leadership and vision of Palestinian students whenever possible.
3) SJP views the liberation of the Palestinian people as bound up with the liberation of all oppressed people.
4) SJP supports a one-state solution for Palestine in which all ethnicities can live under equal rights.
5) SJP is committed to organizing for the liberation of Palestine from settler colonial rule. This entails a democratic, plurinational one-state solution to initiate the process of decolonization. What we identify decolonization to be composed of includes:
The right of return for Palestinians and the Palestinian diaspora.
A process of land reform which adequately addresses the injustice of dispossession and creates the conditions of peace and reconciliation.
The right to defense and resistance for occupied peoples to survive and demand their sovereignty (per the UN resolution 37/43).
6) SJP knows that the occupation, apartheid, and colonization of Palestine is a result of U.S/Western imperialism and capitalism. Stanford SJP is committed to understanding and organizing for the liberation of Palestine, and all oppressed peoples, knowing that dismantling systems of oppression such as imperialism and capitalism is at the center of it all. We are committed to people’s struggle around the world and understand the Palestinian struggle to have the potential to inculcate anti-imperialist and anti-capitalist ideology within other US social movements.
7) SJP acknowledges the land we occupy on Turtle Island, and fights for the liberation of all indigenous peoples globally. Both the US and Israel were founded as European settler colonial outposts, created through the ethnic cleansing of native peoples in order to gain control of maximum land and resources for a white ruling class. Palestinians and Indigenous Populations globally unite and feel the connections in their struggles which are deeply intertwined, which is why it is imperative to understand that Palestine is an Indigenous Struggle, one that we can tangibly support and advocate for.
8) SJP recognizes the history of settler colonialism in the Americas – a history that sees Islamophobia, anti-Indigenous narratives, anti-Blackness, antisemitism, homophobia, ableism, and classism as inextricably bound. Active solidarity is crucial to mobilizing people for global collective livingness, thriving and liberation.

Founded in 2001, the Stanford Undergraduate Research Journal (SURJ) is an annual, peer-reviewed publication of research articles from all academic fields. The mission of SURJ is to encourage, recognize, and reward intellectual activity beyond the classroom while providing a forum for the exchange of research and ideas. Our journal is run entirely by a staff team of Stanford undergraduate students, led by an Editor-in-Chief.

SURJ publishes work produced by well-qualified students from all institutions. All submitted papers undergo review by SURJ's team of editors, who subsequently deliberate and select the best-submitted papers for publication. Our editors work closely with the selected authors to revise and polish their papers to best communicate the author's ideas and discoveries. Articles published in SURJ have been cited in major peer-reviewed journals from a wide range of disciplines.

We are Talisman A Cappella. We were founded on Stanford's campus with an original intention of using music to shed light on underrepresented narratives, especially the music and stories of the Anti-Apartheid movement in South Africa. Every year, as Talisman recreates itself with new voices, we cull the stories that have moved us and formed us, building an ever-expanding repertoire that reflects what is most meaningful to us as individuals and as an ensemble.

Talisman has had the privilege to perform at several Bay Area Schools, tour in communities in California, the East Coast, the American Southwest, and the Southern United States. We embarked on five tours in South Africa where we have cultivated lasting relationships with several communities and organizations. In 2018, the group took a trip to Maui and Oahu as part of a year dedicated to learning and sharing narratives from the API experience, especially that of Native Hawaiians and their fight for sovereignty and reclamation. In 2019, we flew to Mumbai, and then to Udaipur, India. Ram Sampath, a music composer we met with in Mumbai, said to us: "You don't tolerate each other. You get along...You have to find what unites you and not what divides you." This message was and is timely and important, at home for many of our members in the United States, but also in many regions abroad.


We have also collaborated with local groups such as An Oakland Storyteller, various Bay Area community gospel choirs, Stanford Taiko, Stanford Everyday People, and numerous other Stanford student groups.

Talisman as a group is committed not only to education and the arts, but also to social change, equity, and cross-cultural exchange. As we sing, we lend our hearts to uplift, support, remember, and recall the work and wisdom of those who came before us in order to imagine a better world for ourselves and those to come. We invite you to share your voice and your stories with us!
