DFA Conversations is a series of ongoing, monthly gatherings designed to encourage and facilitate information exchange between DFA and its campus partners. Each session of DFA Conversations usually consists of a presentation by a DFA staff member, followed by time for questions and dialogue among all attendees.
These forums serve two purposes: (1) to help members of the university community better understand how DFA supports the university’s mission, and (2) to inform DFA’s teams of the business needs of their customers.
