BGen Kristin Goodwin, ’93, Commandant of Cadets Remarks: General Goodwin updated the CAS on what she has been doing since she took command last August, which largely consisted in establishing her priorities with regard to the culture at the Academy. She has three main priorities, which are People, Mission, and Pride. See her slides in Attachment II. One of her themes that applies to cadets, staff, and all the agencies that support the mission of the Academy is “Don’t Walk Past a Problem.” Gen Goodwin emphasized accountability is needed in the Cadet Wing and the permanent party. When asked what the Academy was doing with regard to the pilot shortage across the Air Force, she explained it is a complex issue made up of many parts. The minutes cannot accurately reflect her answer – we do not take notes that fast! [Sorry] When asked about the demographics of the AOCs, she relayed that the 40 AOCs are a sampling of as many AFSCs as possible.

  • September 21, 2017 the Honorable John Koskinen Commissioner
    September 21, 2017 The Honorable John Koskinen Commissioner Internal Revenue Service 1111 Constitution Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20224 Margaret Von Lienen Acting Director, Exempt Organizations Internal Revenue Service 1111 Constitution Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20224 Dear Commissioner Koskinen and Acting Director Von Lienen: The Campaign Legal Center (“CLC”) requests an immediate Internal Revenue Service investigation into the activities of the Foundation for Moral Law (“FML”), a Montgomery, Alabama-based organization holding tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the Code. FML appears to have violated its tax-exempt status by repeatedly and expressly advocating the election of U.S. Senate candidate Roy Moore, who is the former president of FML, and whose wife is its current president. CLC asks the Service to determine whether FML’s tax-exempt status should be revoked and whether excise taxes should be imposed on the organization and its managers. An organization can qualify for tax exemption under Section 501(c)(3) of the Code only if “it does not participate in” or “intervene in” “any political campaign on behalf of” “any candidate for political office,” which includes individuals who have publicly announced an intention to seek election. This ensures that a charitable organization does not use its taxpayer subsidy to engage in political propaganda. However, for the last several months, FML has repeatedly used charitable resources to actively promote Moore’s U.S. Senate candidacy. FACTS FML is a legal organization that “represents individuals involved in religious liberties cases and files amicus curiae (friend-of-the-court) briefs in state and federal court” and conducts educational seminars.1 FML’s website asks for “Tax-deductible contributions,” which it says will “allow Foundation attorneys to continue the fight.”2 FML maintains a website, http://morallaw.org/, and a Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/Foundation-for-Moral-Law-111608153140/.

  • 2014 Shreveport Mayoral Forum Candidate Responses
    2014 SHREVEPORT MAYORAL FORUM CANDIDATE RESPONSES PURPOSE This document was produced by PACE (People Acting for Change and Equality) for the purpose of sharing the responses of the 2014 Shreveport Mayoral Candidates to questions regarding LGBT issues. This document is broken down by question, or questions, as some issues were broken down into multiple questions, with the responses from each candidate following directly after. Unless otherwise noted with the bolded text “PACE NOTE”, the response is as close to what the candidate said as possible. At the forum, each question began with a different candidate, so the answers here are presented in the order they were answered. QUESTION 1 Richard Florida, a noted public policy expert, has looked at a key factor in whether a city will thrive or struggle—whether newcomers to the city skew toward college grads or high school dropouts. This is reported in his recent publication in The Atlantic titled: “High School Dropouts and College Grads are Moving to Very Different Places.” He finds the best predictor of whether educated talent comes to a city is the concentration of gays and lesbians in that city. This is because an active and visible gay and lesbian population signals the open-mindedness, tolerance, and diversity valued by the highly educated. From the most recent census data, Shreveport/Bossier City has 23.5% college graduates among adults 25 and older, well below the national average of 28.5%. Austin, Texas, a magnet for creative class knowledge-based workers, has 40.6%. In 2012, Caddo’s high school graduation rate was 63.4% while Austin’s was 82.5%.

  • Department of the Air Force United States Air Force Trial Judiciary
    DEPARTMENT OF THE AIR FORCE UNITED STATES AIR FORCE TRIAL JUDICIARY UNITED STATES OF AMERICA DEFENSE MOTION TO DISMISS: UNLAWFUL COMMAND v. INFLUENCE, PROSECUTORIAL MISCONDUCT AIR FORCE CADET (AFC) LARS P. KNUTSON CADET GROUP 2 Date: 15 February 2019 UNITED STATES AIR FORCE ACADEMY, CO MOTION Air Force Cadet (AFC) Lars P. Knutson hereby respectfully moves, pursuant to Rule for Courts- Martial (R.C.M.) 905, 907, and relevant case law, this Honorable Court to dismiss all charges and specifications with prejudice. Such relief should be granted due to egregious unlawful command influence and prosecutorial misconduct as set forth below. The Defense respectfully requests an Article 39(a) hearing with the opportunity to call witnesses and argue this motion. SUMMARY Simply put, unlawful command influence (UCI) occurs when authority puts its thumb on the scale of justice. UCI is the improper use, or perception of use, of superior authority to interfere with the court-martial process. See Gilligan & Lederer, Court-Martial Procedure § 18-28.00 (4th ed. 2015); accord Art. 37, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). Indisputably, UCI is “the mortal enemy of military justice.” United States v. Thomas, 22 M.J. 388, 393 (C.M.A. 1986); United States v. Gore, 60 M.J. 178 (C.A.A.F. 2004); United States v. Douglas, 68 M.J. 349 (C.A.A.F. 2010); United States v. Salyer, 72 M.J. 415 (C.A.A.F. 2013). Similarly, the duty of the prosecutor is to seek justice, not merely to convict. ABA Standard 3- 1.2. A prosecutor must neither avoid pursuit of evidence nor attempt to change testimony because he believes it may damage the prosecution’s case or aid the accused.

  • Dissertation Friendships Formed at the United States
    DISSERTATION FRIENDSHIPS FORMED AT THE UNITED STATES AIR FORCE ACADEMY: ALUMNI PERCEPTIONS OF SOCIAL CAPITAL AND RESILIENCE Submitted by Brian Q. Gauck School of Education In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Spring 2019 Doctoral Committee: Advisor: Carole Makela Thomas J. Chermack Ken Barbarick Paul Shelton Copyright by Brian Gauck 2019 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT FRIENDSHIPS FORMED AT THE UNITED STATES AIR FORCE ACADEMY: ALUMNI PERCEPTIONS OF SOCIAL CAPITAL AND RESILIENCE This study examined friendships among US Air Force Academy cadets from the perspective of Academy alumni. Alumni data reveal the value of cadet friendships where resultant social cohesion is tied to resilience throughout military training as well as to long-term professional relationships. Friendships are the locus of resilience within the Cadet Wing, and alumni experiences reveal that social capital development begins as early as Basic Cadet Training. The study’s theoretical model, adapted from Weidman's (1989) study of college freshmen social interactivity, juxtaposes cadet attributes (demographic characteristics of entering first-year students) against normative pressures inherent in the military/academic training environment (related to social and task cohesion and gender hegemony). The profile of students entering the Academy is typified by exemplary academic, athletic and civic performance, and while the Academy offers social and academic support programs to address retention, the historically high attrition rate strongly suggests a relationally-mediated identity shift is necessary. This identity shift typically begins before or during Basic Cadet Training. Causal-comparative data analysis suggests formation of at least one trusted friendship is a strong determinant in cadets’ ability to persist through social-normative pressures.
