Grad/Prof Table Talk Fall 2024

Apply today for the Table Talk cohort Fall 2024

Table Talk is simple! Selected students will have access to funds to take a faculty or staff member to a meal on campus. Talk about your personal and professional goals, your current Spotify playlist, the Duke-UNC rivalry, time travel, or anything you want! Enjoy yourself and the conversation, then tell us all about your experience. 

Why? Because informal interactions with faculty and staff outside of the classroom can help you find pathways to success while you’re at Duke and increase your sense of belonging to the university. 

Space in the fall semester cohort is limited.
