                                        October 24, 1998      
              别 开 生 面 的 学 制  
 
              　 　 斯 坦 福 大 学 另 有 两 个 「 与 众 不 同 」 。 第 一 
 是 它 不 像 一 般 的 
              大 学 ， 每 年 有 两 个 学 期 。 它 的 校 规 中 把 一 年 分 
 成 四 季 度 ， 学 生 
              们 每 段 都 要 选 不 同 的 课 ， 这 样 ， 比 那 些 两 学 期 
 制 大 学 的 学 生 们 
              学 的 课 程 要 多 。 不 过 ， 这 样 ， 也 导 致 了 每 一 季 
 度 的 节 奏 都 紧 凑 
              得 让 人 喘 不 过 气 来 ， 学 生 们 好 像 一 天 到 晚 不 是 
 在 预 备 中 考 就 是 
              在 预 备 期 末 考 试 。 这 也 导 致 了 斯 坦 福 大 学 与 其 
 它 学 校 的 时 间 表 
              对 应 不 上 。 别 人 早 在 五 月 中 、 上 旬 就 开 始 了 暑 
 假 ， 而 斯 坦 福 的 
              学 生 要 等 到 六 月 下 旬 才 能 开 始 度 假 。 不 过 ， 他 
 们 可 以 比 别 人 晚 
              几 个 星 期 才 入 学 。  
 
              　 　 另 一 个 「 不 同 」 是 斯 坦 福 大 学 充 满 自 由 风 
 格 的 「 停 下 」 
              (stopping out) 校 规 ， 让 学 生 们 可 以 随 时 暂 时 辍 学 
 一 年 ， 然 后 再 接 
              著 回 来 上 学 。 斯 坦 福 的 这 种 校 规 ， 是 因 为 校 方 
 相 信 不 一 定 要 把 
              本 科 的 教 育 四 年 一 气 上 完 。 他 们 鼓 励 学 生 在 学 
 校 外 多 体 验 与 享 
              受 人 生 。 斯 坦 福 也 给 学 生 们 提 供 种 类 繁 多 的 留 
 学 机 会 ， 到 日 本 
              、 英 国 、 德 国 、 法 国 、 义 大 利 … …  
 
              总 统 千 金 成 了 新 鲜 人  
 
              　 　 斯 坦 福 大 学 的 体 育 也 是 有 口 皆 碑 ， 在 上 一 
 届 奥 林 匹 克 运 动 
              会 时 斯 坦 福 的 体 育 健 将 竟 得 意 洋 洋 地 拿 回 了 十 
 二 枚 奖 牌 。  
 
              　 　 斯 坦 福 大 学 唯 一 让 学 生 们 不 满 意 的 ， 是 校 
 园 附 近 的 小 镇 太 
              过 无 聊 。 「 什 么 都 十 点 关 门 ！ 」 有 学 生 抱 怨 说 
 。 但 是 ， 他 们 既 
              然 离 旧 金 山 不 过 一 小 时 之 遥 ， 湾 区 一 带 又 有 数 
 不 完 的 好 去 处 ， 
              优 胜 美 地 国 家 公 园 也 可 周 末 前 往 ， 也 就 应 该 知 
 足 了 。  
 
              　 　 在 少 有 传 统 的 斯 坦 福 大 学 ， 居 然 也 有 个 有 
 趣 的 传 统 ： 新 入 
              学 的 女 生 ， 如 果 不 在 半 夜 十 二 点 钟 被 一 个 四 年 
 级 的 男 生 吻 一 下 
              ， 就 不 算 正 式 成 为 「 斯 坦 福 之 女 」 。 在 有 月 光 
 的 夜 晚 ， 经 常 可 
              见 一 群 嘻 笑 著 的 女 生 等 著 兄 弟 会 的 成 员 们 来 帮 
 她 们 完 成 这 个  
              u 入 门 仪 式 」 。 也 经 常 可 见 不 是 二 、 三 年 级 的 
 男 生 硬 要 装 成 四 
              年 级 的 男 生 来 一 亲 芳 泽 。 据 说 最 近 ， 斯 坦 福 的 
 男 生 自 己 也 开 始 
              了 这 么 一 项 仪 式 ， 当 然 ， 这 得 要 四 年 级 的 女 生 
 们 合 作 了 。  
 
              　 　 去 年 ， 斯 坦 福 大 学 成 为 媒 体 的 宠 儿 ， 因 为 
 美 国 总 统 柯 林 顿 
              唯 一 的 千 金 雀 儿 喜 ， 在 左 挑 右 选 之 后 ， 终 于 决 
 定 舍 东 部 的 长 春 
              藤 名 校 不 去 ， 而 去 了 美 国 西 岸 的 斯 坦 福 大 学 。 
 媒 体 一 度 纷 纷 扬 
              扬 地 披 露 ， 雀 儿 喜 此 举 是 因 为 她 要 好 的 男 朋 友 
 在 斯 坦 福 大 学 读 
              书 ， 她 自 然 想 与 她 男 友 在 一 所 学 校 。 不 过 ， 这 
 也 充 分 地 显 出 斯 
              坦 福 大 学 在 人 们 心 目 中 ， 名 气 与 东 部 的 老 牌 名 
 校 早 已 不 相 上 下 
              。
