We cordially invite you to join us for our scholar community listening session with the Department of Defense (DoD). We are hosting this listening session to provide a platform where scholars can ask questions and engage in dialogue. We will be welcoming Bindu Nair, Department of Defense Director of Basic Research. The community listening session will take place on Wednesday, August 30th at 7pm ET. Please save the date and mark this important discussion in your calendars. This is a unique opportunity to offer feedback and learn more about new and developing policies at the DoD. 

This webinar covers the process by which those in the scholar community can become Presidential appointees. The Presidential Personnel Office (PPO) is responsible for aiding the President in recruiting, vetting, and nominating over 4,000 political appointments throughout the federal government. We will be joined by representatives from PPO as well as current political appointees who can share their experiences.
