This short video captures highlights from the 2014 American Society for Public Administration (ASPA) Annual Conference in Washington, D.C. At the invitation of Nancy Foye-Cox and with support from Sally Gutierrez, I moderated a wisdom circle of women ASPA leaders. I also attended the keynote by Dr. Bernice Sandler, "the godmother of Title IX," and celebrated Nancy Foye-Cox receiving the Marcia P.
