Message from the Dean
American University’s School of Public Affairs is a place where knowledge
meets action. By joining scholars and practitioners around society’s
most pressing concerns, SPA creates a vibrant dynamic: scholars gain
insights from practice that shape research, and practitioners draw on
SPA’s knowledge to enhance their work. This synergy enables SPA to drive
transformational progress in policy, politics, and public administration.
Teaching at SPA is a powerful outgrowth of our research, as we prepare the next generation for
leadership. At the crux of our innovative curriculum are the latest technology, project-based
instruction, and a wealth of internships in Washington, D.C. Midcareer executives can also take
classes through specially tailored programs. SPA thrives because we attract talented, ambitious, and
focused students who are quick to apply their knowledge and skills to the real world.
Our contribution to practice includes a powerful faculty presence in D.C., whether providing Congressional testimony, serving on task forces,
accepting prestigious policy appointments, or engaging with think tanks. Each activity draws from AU’s connection to our city and carves a unique
path to influence.
Recent SPA achievements have been extraordinary. We have hit high notes in research, teaching, and public leadership in multiple fields. And we
plan even more. With an ambitious strategic plan in place, our research will be more relevant, our teaching more creative, and our reach more visible.
Our faculty will grow this year within the school’s new thematic research emphasis areas of health policy, security policy, and urban or metropolitan
governance. The addition of these individuals to our already world-class faculty will sharpen our focus by creating clusters of expertise to propel
collaborative work and advance the institution.
I hope you enjoy reviewing all that SPA has accomplished in the past two years. I am sure you will agree that the SPA network is robust and
ambitious. I encourage you to stay tuned; there is more to come.

Looking Behind
and Ahead
With a mission to shape the political arena via diverse research and educational programs, SPA aspires
to be recognized as a premier national and international leader in public affairs. The shared vision for
the school is to create knowledge through research, prepare public service leaders, and influence public
policy. SPA seeks to identify and leverage both schoolwide strength and our location and connections
to our nation’s capital to influence both academic and practitioner audiences.
As dean of SPA for nearly a decade, William LeoGrande
solidified SPA’s position as a leading school of public affairs
in the United States. Full-time faculty increased from 51
to 71, and executive education programs were developed
and lauded nationally. LeoGrande’s recent appointment to
associate vice provost for academic affairs will focus on

Tumultuous “Occupy”
Year Yields Rich Data
Doctoral students surveyed occupiers in Washington, D.C., and more
than 300 Occupy Wall Street participants in Manhattan’s Zuccotti Park.
They found a strong relationship between people’s willingness to use
violence against the police and the extent to which participants viewed
the police behaving fairly.
With Maguire’s network of academic colleagues across the country,
additional Occupy sites were surveyed through research partnerships
with Sam Houston State University and San Francisco State
University, in conjunction with University of California–Berkeley and
with Arizona State University’s Center for Violence Prevention and
Community Safety.

Study Sheds Light
on Why Women
Don’t Run for Office
Despite the attention the media devote to high-level
female political figures, such as Michele Bachmann,
Hillary Clinton, and Sarah Palin, a new study
conducted by Jennifer L. Lawless, SPA professor of
government and director of the Women and Politics
Institute, and Richard L. Fox, professor of political
science at Loyola Marymount University, reveals a
continued and substantial gender gap in political
ambition among both Democrats and Republicans.
In their new report, “Men Rule: The Continued Under-Representation
of Women in U.S. Politics,” Lawless—a 2006 candidate for Congress
seeking the Democratic nomination in Rhode Island’s second district—
and Fox detail the results of a survey of nearly 4,000 lawyers, business
leaders, educators, and political activists, all of whom are well situated
to run for office. Even with the emergence of high-profile women in
politics over the past 10 years, the authors found that the gap between
women and men’s interest in running for office is the same today as it
was a decade ago.
The seven factors identified by the report as contributing to that gender
gap range from women’s perceptions of an electoral environment that
is highly competitive and biased against female candidates to the reality
that women are still less likely than men to receive encouragement and
support to throw their hats into the ring.

the fourth annual Charles H. Levine Memorial Lecture
in Public Administration and Policy in April 2012.
The lecture was created to honor the contributions of Charles
Levine, one of the most influential scholars in public management
and a champion of the public service. Levine was the school’s first
distinguished professor, a position he held until he passed away in 1988.
Levine was as devoted to his students as he was to his field. His famous
love of mentoring is one of the reasons the Levine lecture is followed by
conferral of the department’s annual PhD student research award.

SPA and Consortium Explore
Solutions to Caribbean Gang Violence
Charles Katz of Arizona State University and SPA Professor Ed
Maguire shared key findings from the pair’s six-year research project
in Trinidad, where they studied 10 gangs in four Trinidadian
neighborhoods that were hotspots for violent crime. The researchers
found that rationales for violence greatly varied, indicating that
theories of “root causes” of gang violence (i.e., poverty or the drug
trade) were not acknowledged motivations for gang violence. In
Trinidad, gang members killed people for reasons such as perceived
disrespect, territory, disputes about money or girls, retaliation, internal
power struggles, or revenge for providing information to police.

other important topics. In 2012 PTI presented these
issues in lively programs:
PTI’s Political Theory Colloquium Lecture Series featured prominent
speakers and leading scholars from across the nation. New York Times

Symposium Explores Legacy of Public
Administration Scholar John Rohr
SPA’s Department of Public Administration and Policy
attracted faculty from across the country and Australia
to explore the life, legacy, and contributions of public
administration scholar John Rohr (1934–2011).
A founding member of the Center for Public Administration and
Policy at Virginia Tech University, Rohr was the author of seven books,
a Fulbright Scholar, a fellow at the Woodrow Wilson International
Center for Scholars, the recipient of the American Society for Public
Administration and the National Association of Schools of Public Affairs
and Administration’s annual Distinguished Research Award, and the
prestigious Dwight Waldo Award for contributions to the literature and
leadership of public administration. His work contributed to the concept
of public service ethics, the significance of regime values in public
administrative management, and comparative constitutional analysis.
The Rohr symposium, which was organized by faculty members David
Rosenbloom and Stephanie Newbold, is part of an SPA tradition of
exploring intellectual giants in the field of public administration. In 2003,
SPA hosted a conference on Dwight Waldo, scholar and author of the
classic work The Administrative State. Papers presented at this symposium
were subsequently published in Revisiting Waldo’s Administrative State
(Georgetown University Press, 2006), edited by SPA professors Howard
McCurdy and David Rosenbloom.
