SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The 38th Graham Hovey Lecture with NPR's Andrea Hsu
DESCRIPTION:A sweeping effort to expand presidential power and overhaul the federal government began the moment Donald Trump returned to the White House on January 20\, 2025. Executive orders targeted the federal workforce\, reducing its size and making it more responsive to executive authority. Within a few months\, tens of thousands of federal employees were fired\, and far more resigned amid threats of mass layoffs. While a flurry of lawsuits has slowed those actions\, it’s abundantly clear that the government workforce is not what it was on January 20. What’s unclear is what the government will ultimately become and how the country will be changed in the process.\n\nNPR labor and workplace correspondent Andrea Hsu\, a 2012 Knight-Wallace Fellow\, has been closely covering the upheaval inside government agencies and the legal fights surrounding it. She’ll share insights from those still working within federal agencies and those who have recently been pushed out\, and explore what this transformation could mean for how Americans experience and rely on their government.\n\nThis is an in-person event and will not be live-streamed. However\, a recording of the lecture will be available on our website following the event. Reception following the lecture.\n\nAbout the Speaker\nAndrea Hsu began her journalism career as a locally hired researcher for the BBC’s Beijing bureau. She joined NPR’s Washington\, D.C.\, newsroom in 2002\, spending nearly two decades as a producer for “All Things Considered.” In late 2020\, she transitioned to NPR’s business desk\, where she reported on how the COVID-19 pandemic reshaped the workforce. Since 2021\, she has served as NPR’s labor and workplace correspondent\, focusing on the evolving dynamics of work in the United States.\n\nAbout the Graham Hovey Lecture\nThe annual Graham Hovey Lecture recognizes a Knight-Wallace journalist whose career exemplifies the benefits of a fellowship at the University of Michigan and whose ensuing work is at the forefront of our national conversations. The event is named for the late Graham Hovey\, director of the fellowship program from 1980 to 1986 and a distinguished journalist for The New York Times.
