The speeches of Yale University's twenty-third president, Peter Salovey

From 2013 to 2024, Peter Salovey served as president of Yale; prior to his presidency he served as Yale's dean and provost. The speeches compiled in this volume, many of which were delivered to bodies of students either entering or graduating from the university, articulate Salovey's vision for a unified, innovative, and inclusive institution and reflect his experience as an award-winning psychology professor. Recurring motifs include fostering interdisciplinary collaboration, embracing innovation in academia, and increasing accessibility for diverse and first-generation students. Salovey advocates for excellence, the free exchange of ideas, belonging, gratitude, and compassion within the Yale community, promoting civility, intellectual humility, deep listening, and open dialogue. He also underscores the university's commitment to local and global engagement, encouraging impactful contributions to society. The collection encapsulates Salovey's comprehensive and forward-thinking leadership, aimed at creating a cohesive, pioneering, and welcoming academic environment.
