Student Involvement

Dine with the Dean: October 25 & November 22, 2009

Not much in life is free, but here is a deal you can't beat! The Dean would like to treat YOU to lunch.

Each month during the academic year, a group of students is invited to lunch with Dr. Mark Weichold, the Dean and CEO of Texas A&M at Qatar. The program is designed to give students an opportunity to meet with Dr. Weichold and talk about student issues and concerns over an informal lunch. "Dine with the Dean" is just one way of maintaining lines of open communication between students and the TAMUQ administration.

If you would like to attend one of the lunches, please fill out this Registration Form. 6 students will be chosen each month to attend on a first come first serve basis. A student may not attend more than once an academic year.Space is limited, so please sign up early!
