Thanks for posting Eric, but as usual our Stanford sites are inconsistent.  If you look at the link below, which is noted in Wikipedia, Stanford athletes have won  280 medals.  Also, Eric Heiden won 5 golds in speed skating in the 1980 Lake Placid games and he's not listed in the link you found.    I still think Earl K and co should compile the definitive list broken out by US and all other countries. 

Here's the other Stanford link that states 280 medals at the bottom:

http://facts.stanford.edu/campuslife/athletics

Home of Champions

    Total National Championships: 129 (NCAA rank: #1)
    Total NCAA Championships: 108 (#2)
    Total Men's NCAA Championships: 62 (#3)
    Total Women's NCAA Championships: 46 (#1)
    Total Individual NCAA Championships: 462 (#1)
    NCAA Team Championships Since 1990: 95
    NCAA Team Championships Since 1980: 119
    Consecutive years with national team championship(s): 40 (#1)
    Olympic medals won by Stanford-affiliated athletes: 280

Here's the Wikipedia reference as well:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Am...pic_medals

I would guess the 280 includes the winter Olympics and I could see us with 280 total (pre-Rio) with 243 from the summer games and 37 from the winter games, from the previous list

• Entering the 2016 Olympic Games, Stanford has won 243 overall medals (125 gold, 66 silver, 52 bronze).
  • [li]Leading the way among Stanford's 155 overall medalists are: Jenny Thompson (12 career medals), John Hencken (6), Janet Evans (5) and Pablo Morales (5).
    
  • The record for most medals won in a single Olympics is four, a feat accomplished by Jenny Thompson (2000), Summer Sanders (1992), Sharon Stouder Clark (1964) and Chris von Saltza Olmstead (1960).
    

which as you point out excludes Eric Heiden who won 5 medals in a single Olympics and should be on both of these lists if it included the winter olympics, that's one reason I think the 243 is summer and 280 is summer + winter.
