1 Jun 1919 Jahr - Steinbeck graduates high school and enrolls at Stanford University.

Beschreibung:

Steinbeck enrolled at Stanford University to please his parents. However, he only signed up for courses that interested him. He spent his time studying classical and British literature, creative writing, and science. Writing was still his obsession, and he often attended English club meetings to read his stories out loud.
