in the last two years there has been (or will soon be) significant turnover in Stanford "Top Management", the ones I can recall are:
- President
- Provost
- CFO
- General Counsel
- Head of the SAA
the last three had been at Stanford for 20+ years

As a former local alumni chapter officer, Howard was amazing to work with and really helped keep us connected to the mothership. He leaves very, very large shoes to fill, but I hope he will enjoy his post-SAA leadership life :)

I always enjoyed hearing Howard Wolf speak. I'm impressed how good he is at frank unscripted discussion.

He may be congratulated on a job well done.
