FYE Talks 

FYE Talks with Faculty is the First Year Experience program’s ongoing discussion series that invites students to learn more about the career paths and research/creative interests of faculty at Queens College. Each session features a moderated discussion and a Q&A session in which all attendees are invited to participate. While these talks are designed to be of special interest to first-year students, all members of the QC community are welcome to attend.
