The Faculty Roundtable Lunch invites students, faculty, and administrators to converse and learn about each other’s experiences in a more intimate lunch setting at the Statler Hotel.
In this exclusive event, students will have the opportunity to get to know professors and administrators on a personal level, gaining insights into their experiences, projects, and classes.
Your presence at this event is invaluable; your expertise, passion, and commitment significantly impact our Dyson journey.
