BUILDING THE BEAT
George Washington Uni-
versity has asked a Districc of
Columbia courc to throw out a
$1.3 million lawsuit in which a
janitorial employee alleges she
was harassed and discriminated
against by a GW Police officer
due to her race and gender, the
GW Hatchet reported Thursday.
Rebecca Ashitey, a native of
Ghana, alleges that an officer-
named J. Cates in the suit - has
repeatedly stopped her at the
entrance to her place of work,
such as her name, social secu-
rity number and GW identifica-
tion number. She also alleges
that, in October 2011, the officer
assaulted and arrested her when
she bypassed his questioning to
enter a building.
GW lawyers claim Ashitey
has not followed the proper pro-
tocol for filinig a lawsuit.
MTV CONNECTS
GEORGETOWN TO OBAMA
Students at Georgetown Uni-
versity participated in MTVs
"Power of 12" campaign this
week, which focuses on promot-
ing the election through giving
students the opportunity to ask
candidates question, accord-
ing to an a .Friday article in the
Hoya.
Georgetown students were
e-mailed a week in advance
and encouraged to submit their
questions for consideration for
the show, which was hosted on
Georgetown's campus by MTV
news correspondent Andrew
Jenks.
"I was impressed at how
articulate everyone was," Jenks
said in the article. "They knew
the issues and were very specif-
ic in what they wanted to hear
from the President."
MTV-also hopes to conduct a
similar interview session with
Republican presidential nomi-
nee Mitt Romney prior to Rlec-
tion Day.
