Each semester, Bush School students have the opportunity to meet prominent public service leaders during informal luncheon conversation sessions. The Bush School’s Conversations in Leadership series is a monthly (normally three times a semester) opportunity for Bush School students to discuss various aspects of leadership with visiting leaders from the university and from public and nonprofit agencies. These sessions are organized by Bush School students in coordination with the Public Service Leadership Program staff.

  • Mayor Ben White, College Station, “A Career in Local Government and Nonprofits”
  • Ms. Erika Prochaska and Lorelei St. James, Government Accountability Office (GAO), “My First Six Months at GAO: What It’s Really Like”
