I am writing to share the exciting news that Stanford will move forward with a 36-sport model.

I am thrilled that we have found a way to continue sponsoring these varsity sports, which are an important part of the fabric of this university. I am grateful for the passionate Cardinal supporters who helped make this happen, and I am thankful to President Tessier-Lavigne and Provost Drell for helping forge this path forward. I believe the future is extremely bright for Stanford Athletics and am eager to begin the important work of galvanizing our community and cementing Stanford's position of leadership and excellence in intercollegiate sports.

You can find additional information about the decision and process linked here, as well as an FAQs document.

I recognize that last summer’s decision was heartbreaking for so many people who care deeply about these programs, and I want to thank you for your passion. The outcome that was reached is a testament to the solution-oriented approach that so many adopted.

As always, thank you for your passion and support of Stanford Athletics.

Sincerely,


Bernard Muir
