A member of the Democratic Party serving the Arizona legislature recently chose to step down from his position in light of validated reports regarding sexual misconduct allegations during his college years at a university located in Washington, D.C. On Tuesday, Representative Jevin Hodge stepped up and submitted his resignation, scarcely two months after his appointment to the esteemed position. His departure was accepted by his peers with House Minority Leader Lupe Contreras stating, 'We have accepted Representative Hodge's resignation in good faith and respect for our caucus. The important business of the state remains our unswerving focus as we move forward.' The Arizona Republic newspaper shared an article on Monday, discussing accusations against Rep. Hodge made by a female who alleged that he engaged in nonconsensual sexual behavior. What began in 2015 as an ostensibly consensual encounter while he was a student at George Washington University (GWU), morphed into an event remembered quite differently. A GWU hearing board ruled in 2016 that Hodge had indeed violated conduct policies denouncing sexual violence and misconduct, imposing a disciplinary suspension by barring him from campus; official records confirm this. Discussing his stepping down, Hodge addressed the public via social media. In his statement, Hodge expressed his sorrow 'to those who may have been caused pain by my actions.' Though Mr. Hodge vehemently denied the charges leveled against him, he did acknowledge that the present moment was not his to command in a position of leadership. Offering a more meticulous account of the aforementioned incident, Hodge issued an additional statement earlier, carefully detailing the course of events during his time at GWU. 'When I was a 21-year-old college student, I found myself in a consensual romantic encounter with a fellow student. Both of us had consumed alcohol and remained fully clothed during the entire encounter. I had a clear understanding that consent was indispensable, so once she communicated her discomfort, our interaction ceased immediately. I escorted her outside and called a cab to ensure she reached home safely.', After several months, I was notified that I was being accused of sexual misconduct,' Hodge admitted. 'I take full responsibility for all my actions and have learned from this dire experience, evolving into a more mature individual. However, to avoid any misunderstanding, I categorically deny the charges made against me.', Hodge further stated his commitment to the truth, revealing that he had requested a comprehensive police investigation into the allegations in 2016. 'Unfortunately, the institution failed to comply with my request. I firmly believe in owning up to one's actions. As I sat through the university hearing concerning this matter, I realized the emotional turmoil the incident had caused her. I deeply regret the distress that I inflicted.' The report in The Arizona Republic further stated that the unnamed woman who made the complaint filed it with the school authorities. According to the report, she refrained from pressing formal charges given her status as a lawful permanent resident in the United States at that period. Her concerns were centered around potential harm to her legal standing in the country, should she choose to advance with a legal complaint. As this recent turning of events unfolded, the ripple effects of past actions and their toll on personal and public life again rose to the forefront. The processes used by educational institutions to adjudicate allegations of misconduct, and the lasting marks such allegations can leave on an individual's life, were once more illuminated. It's a stark reminder about the importance of personal responsibility, the acknowledgments of impact on others, and the maturity to learn from past mistakes. No matter how distant the events may be, they have the potential of resurfacing, prompting one to face their consequences. As this situation demonstrates, public officials are no exception to this rule. They must be prepared to face scrutiny and own their past actions. It's a part of the checks and balances that accompany positions of public trust, ensuring these officials remain accountable to their constituents. And public trust is a non-commoditized asset in politics. It demands honesty, integrity, and the ability to brave the consequences of one's actions. For Rep. Hodge, his decision to step down from his post underscores his adherence to some of these norms, a move in line with demonstrating a commitment to these key political tenets. As seen here, a public figure's journey often requires consciously toeing the line of transparency and accountability. Whether acknowledging past wrongdoing or denying allegations wholeheartedly, a willingness to meet consequent accountability head-on is paramount. Overall, the unfolding of this incident has set forth a profound dialogue on matters of personal responsibility and accountability, especially when held up against the yardstick of public service. It's an ongoing discourse and will likely continue to be explored as more such instances come to light.

J. Jeff Kober examines why organizations choose to learn best-in-business practices from Disney, and the benefits derived therein. He also looks at what some perceive as the "Disneyification" of their organization when programs like those offered at The Disney Institute seemingly try to push a "Mickey Mouse" agenda on them. In particular, he drills down on an op-ed post written about the investment George Washington University (GWU) made when it allegedly spent millions on Disney programs. To that end, he looks at seven realities organizations face, and why benchmarking other world-class organizations still make sense. Jeff provides lessons any organization can learn from this experience and can be applied to their own place of business. Disney at Work is dedicated to providing best-in-business ideas from "the Happiest Place on Earth" that can be applied back to their organization whether they are in the public, private or non-profit sectors. Jeff is focused on elevating organizations with "out of the box" ideas that can take their business to the next level.

The new President of MCAD (Minneapolis College of Art & Design), Sanjit Sethi, joined us on Legacy Matters to talk higher education and acclimating to the Midwest. A New Yorker by birth, Sanjit previously directed the Corcoran School of the Arts and Design at George Washington University (GWU) in Washington D.C. Sanjit brings a fresh perspective to higher education, exploring the emergent ideas around cultural and social viability. How best can we prepare students as resilient problem-solvers? Art education need not be focused solely on the craft, but offers an opportunity for students to “cross-pollinate” across seemingly disparate disciplines. We also explore “hidden history”; the stories not brought to light and the trauma attached to certain events and places. A bigger discussion than we can adequately cover in our talk, but an important one to continue in the future.

In this special five-part podcast series, I interviewed Dr. Kyle Welch, Assistant Professor at George Washington University (GWU), on his recently released paper, co-authored with Stephen Stubben, Associate Professor from The University of Utah, entitled “Evidence on the Use and Efficacy of Internal Whistleblowing Systems”. In this paper, they reviewed some 15 years of anonymized data from NAVEX Global, Inc., the sponsor of this podcast series. This data was from the company’s hotline reporting systems. Some of the key findings included that companies with a robust whistleblower and reporting system had greater profitability and workforce productivity as measured by Return on Assets (ROA) and there were fewer material lawsuits brought against the company overall and lower settlement costs if a lawsuit did occur. Finally, there were fewer external whistleblower reports to regulatory agencies and other authorities. This podcast series will take a deep dive into the Report. Today we introduce the Report and why he engaged in the research that led to it. This 5-part podcast series is sponsored by NAVEX Global, Inc.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Some of the key findings included that companies with a robust whistleblower and reporting system had greater profitability and workforce productivity as measured by Return on Assets (ROA) and there were fewer material lawsuits brought against the company overall and there were lower settlement costs if a lawsuit did occur. Finally, there were fewer external whistleblower reports to regulatory agencies and other authorities. Throughout this series we are taking a deep dive into the Report. Today we find out the impact of whistleblower reporting systems on power users and expand the definition of litigation. This series is sponsored by NAVEX Global, Inc.

  FEMA Region IX David Samaniego  In this episode of All Hazards we sit down with the current Federal Coordinating Officer (FCO) for the California Wildfires Disaster Response David Samaniego. Large portions of the counties of Shasta and Lake in the north Bay Area of California were devastated by wildfires in late July, 2018. It was declared a major federal disaster on August 4, 2018, which brought the state and federal together to manage the response and recovery operations. Samaniego came onboard as the FCO in September. Samaniego has a wealth of major disaster experience; he talks about leadership challenges in the Flint, Michigan, water contamination crisis as well as the response effort in Puerto Rico following the destruction of Hurricane Maria in which an estimated 3000 people died (that number was released after an independent study by the George Washington University (GWU) in July 2018, which was commissioned by the governor of Puerto Rico.)

About Dr. Wilson: As an advocate for the intrinsic value of education for all, Dr. John Silvanus Wilson Jr. has dedicated more than 25 years to the advancement of socially conscious and purposeful education; student success; and the good that comes from a college education. As a scholar, an educator, a consultant, a strategist and a fundraiser, he has moved universities and organizations forward with his efforts and vision. In January 2013, Dr. Wilson took office as the 11th president of Morehouse College, the nations’ only private, liberal arts institution dedicated to the education of African American males. Prior to that position, Dr. Wilson was appointed by President Barack Obama to serve as the executive director of the White House Initiative on Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), a position he held since 2009. Born in Philadelphia to parents who attended HBCUs (his mother at Morgan State University and his father at Virginia Union University), Dr. Wilson understood at an early age the critical role HBCUs have played in the lives of their students and in United States history. He attended Morehouse College, the alma mater of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., where he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1979. Dr. Wilson continued his education at Harvard University, where he earned two master’s degrees in theological studies and education, as well as a doctorate in education, with a focus on administration, planning and social policy. Dr. Wilson’s career in education began in 1985 at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where he served for 16 years in various roles and ultimately as the director of Foundation Relations. In this role, he helped to manage two record-breaking capital campaigns, with combined results approaching $3 billion. While at MIT, he served for more than a decade as the president of the Greater Boston Morehouse College Alumni Association (GBMCAA). Under Dr. Wilson’s leadership, the alumni chapter raised more than $1 million in support of scholarships and community outreach, and he was consequently awarded Morehouse College’s Benjamin Elijah Mays Leadership Award in 1998. In honor of the impact he has had on both Morehouse College and the community, the GBMCAA established the John Wilson Leadership Award to recognize current Morehouse students who exhibit similar transformative leadership qualities. In 2001, Dr. Wilson’s career led him to the George Washington University (GWU), where he served for eight years filling such critical leadership roles as executive dean of the university’s Virginia campus and associate professor of higher education in the Graduate School of Education. His research focused on best practices for the sustainability and stability of colleges and universities, as well as transformative advancement and finance in higher education. Dr. Wilson also assisted GWU in creating a university-wide strategic plan that addressed opportunities for advancement and success. In his role as the nation’s executive director of the White House Initiative on HBCUs —which serves as liaison between HBCUs, the White House, 32 federal agencies, and the private corporate and philanthropic sectors—Dr. Wilson promoted HBCU excellence, innovation and sustainability. He was charged with strengthening the capacity of HBCUs to participate in federal programs; fostering private-sector initiatives and public-private partnerships; improving the availability and dissemination of information on HBCUs to inform public policy; sharing best practices within the HBCU community; and exploring ways to improve the relationship between HBCUs and the federal government. Dr. Wilson is married to Dr. Carol Espy-Wilson, an electrical and computer engineering professor at the University of Maryland, College Park. She is also founder and CEO of OmniSpeech, a speech technology company. They have twin
