A proposito di questo titolo
What happens when the world's wealthiest parents lose their only son? 💔
Stanford University is known today as a global powerhouse of innovation, but its origins are rooted in a deeply personal tragedy. In 1884, Leland Stanford Jr. died just weeks before his 16th birthday. Instead of retreating into their sorrow, his parents poured their massive fortune into creating a university that would treat every student as their own child.
In this episode, we uncover the moving story of the Stanford family and the birth of a legend.
We discuss:
👦 The short, brilliant life of Leland Stanford Jr.
🏛️ The vow that changed California forever: 'The children of California shall be our children.'
📜 The early struggles and the 'Golden Spike' fortune that funded the dream.
🎓 How a memorial for one boy became a gateway for millions.
Understanding begins with why.
