It&#8217;s nice to meet you via the interwebs. I am Larry Chiang &#8212; hi!!<\/p>\n<p>When I say &#8216;UnOfficial&#8217;, what do you think of?! I&#8217;m from Naperville Illinois and the spring break in Illinois conflicted with an Illinois tradition: St Patricks Day. Remember, we Chicagoans dye our river green because that&#8217;s how much we love St Patricks Day. So, when finals conflicted with spring break, we simply MOVED ST PATRICKS DAY TO A MORE CONVENIENT PARTY DAY.<\/p>\n<p>The new St Pats day is simply &#8220;Un-Official&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Well, &#8220;UnOfficial Freshman Orientation&#8221;  honors that irreverent spirit and is a sequel to the legitimate concept of: &#8220;How to Get an Internship the Entrepreneurial Way&#8221;. It was held annually until I started guest lecturing at ENGR 145 in 2009. I guess I got big and then they cut me.<\/p>\n<p>Trust me, if I had my way, I&#8217;d still be speaking to freshman. Well, January 30 at 655 Knight at 5:45-6:40pm I will resurrect frosh orientation. Look for balloons and RSVP via an email to &#8220;Chiang9 @ duck9<\/p>\n<p>It is Wednesday Jan 30, 2013 Look for balloons!!<\/p>\n<p>See how I yielded time and invited better speakers via a video on YouTube: Stanford BASES: How to Get an Internship the Entrepreneurial Way<\/p>\n<p><embed width='425' height='344' allowfullscreen='true' allowscriptaccess='always' type='application\/x-shockwave-flash' src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/Y3QlkSZwIT8&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I am so hiLarryAss!!<\/p>\n<p>This is when Johny Yangsam was a baby freshman.
