The Origin of Fox Society
The Fable & Yale President’s Speech
Yale University President Peter Salovey encouraged students to emulate the fox in his 2017 freshman address.
The “Fox and Hedgehog” story originated from ancient Greek poets:
- Hedgehog sticks to one universal principle
- Fox finds connections between seemingly unrelated things
President Salovey said:
“At university, I want to encourage you to be more like foxes, to learn different ideas and consider different perspectives. Try everything, then decide what suits you best.”
