From his bio when he was running for county commissioner:
I am a graduate of Morehouse College, Phi Beta Kappa; the London School of Economics and Political Science as a Marshall Scholar and the University of Michigan Law School as an Earl Warren Scholar. I believe it is essential for the Commissioners to work in collaboration with School Directors to ensure that the Cheltenham schools attain the highest standards of academic excellence.
As to Washington,
She maintains her innocence, but the report from the Attorney Generals office tells a different story. Most notably from that report, Washingtons chief of staff recalls her saying, I am the f senator, I do what the f I want, how I want, and aint nobody going to change me.
The evidence will show that Senator Washington pressured her staff into performing political activities using taxpayer dollars for her own personal benefit, said Attorney General Kane.
If convicted of all counts, Washington faces a maximum sentence of 12 years imprisonment and a maximum fine of $25,000
