The Stanford Legacy totem pole installed


The Stanford Legacy is a 40-foot, 4,200-pound totem pole that was installed May 6 in front of the Law School. The pole was designed in the traditional Haida style by the Canadian First People artist Don Yeomans. It is carved out of a roughly 400-year-old Western red cedar.
