Fall/Winter 2024

The Robert A. Fox Leadership Program, established thanks to a gift from Robert A. Fox, C’52, and Penny Fox, ED’53, celebrated its 25th anniversary this year. During the past two-and-a-half decades, the program’s focus has evolved from public events and curricular initiatives to also include large-scale service-learning initiatives, leadership fellows, and global engagement. What has never changed, however, is its aim to equip and empower Penn students and alums for present and future roles as ethical and effective leaders, today with John Lapinski, Robert A. Fox Leadership Professor of Political Science, at its helm.
