Yes you totally can. You can live by Stanford, attend the meetups/hackatons/events that all of the stanford students are going to, and help out with some of the entrepreneurial programs (SSE Labs, BASES, Think Outside, etc).

If you're not a student and don't know anyone who is, don't go to a campus event, unless it's explicitly meant for the public in general. It's sketchy. Events are for the Stanford community unless they say otherwise.

Thanks for sharing this. Great resource.

While we are being frank, did anyone think going to Stanford wasn't a good idea?
