Hurt, Roche Nominated for 2025 Turner College Research Award

The first of the finalists for the 2025 Turner College Research Award is Turner College management professor Kevin Hurt. In 2024, Hurt published servant leadership studies in both American Business Review and Conflict Resolution Quarterly. The first of these is rated as an A-level journal by the Australian Business Deans Council, while the second has a B-level designation. In 2023 Hurt added a publication in the Journal of Values-Based Leadership, a feat he accomplished in 2022 as well. That same year, 2022, he also added a publication in the International Journal of Servant-Leadership. A 2020 publication in Evidence-Based HRM, another B-level journal, gave him six quality research pieces over the last few years. Lastly, Hurt's research has to date garnered 335 Google Scholar citations. That same source credits him with an h-index of 7 and an i10-index of 5. The first of these indicates that Hurt's seven most-cited studies have each garnered at least seven Google Scholar citations, while the latter indicates that he has five studies that have each garnered 10 or more citations.
     The second finalist for the 2025 Turner College Research Award is TSYS School computer science professor Rahmatullah Roche, who joined CSU at the beginning this this academic year.  In 2024, Roche published studies on neural and transformer networks in Nucleic Acids Research and Biology Methods & Protocols. Based on ratings provided by Scimago, the first of the outlets listed above is designated as an A-level journal, while the second holds the B-level designation. The previous year, 2023, was just as productive for Roche. Then he published in PLoS Computational Biology and Bioinformatics Advances, another A-level/B-level combination. Roche preceded these achievements with two 2022 publications in Proteins: Structure, Function and Bioinformatics, a B-level journal. In 2021, Roche produced a third A-level/B-level combination with his publications in PLoS Computational Biology and Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, while 2020 arrived with another A-level publication in PLoS One. Lastly, Roche's research has to date garnered 126 Google Scholar citations. That same source credits him with an h-index of 6 and an i10-index of 6. The first of these indicates that Roche's six most-cited studies have each garnered at least six Google Scholar citations, while the latter indicates that he has six studies that have each garnered 10 or more citations.

Turner Business Chats with Kevin Hurt about Leadership Research Program

Our 5 September 2025 profile of Turner College management professor Kevin Hurt has been a popular one here at Turner Business . That blog post focused mainly on the  portfolio of leadership research that he has  steadily built up over recent years into one that is unmatched in the Turner College. We recently visited with Hurt to discuss his research endeavors. The transcript of that visit appears below. TB: ‎ Turner Business recently profiled your growing list of research publications in leadership. What would be your assessment of how your research program in leadership has gone so far? KH:  Overall, it has been a rewarding journey. I appreciate that the Turner Business profile acknowledged my work, particularly in the area of servant leadership.

Turner College Center Directors Team Up to Study Shirking Behavior in the U.S. House

There has been much recent public discourse concerning violent crime in metropolitan areas in the U.S. The most recent example is U.S. President Donald Trump’s decision to deploy U.S. National Guard troops to Washington, D.C., to tamp down what his administration argues is a crime epidemic in the city. Citing reductions in Washington, D.C., crime since 2023, Democratic legislators have referred to Trump’s decision as political theater. Deciphering the political rhetoric can be difficult. On the one hand, the homicide rate (i.e., homicides per 100,000 population) in Washington, D.C., is, according to a recent report by Newsweek , about 2.5 times the U.S. national homicide rate. In this sense, it seems objectively true that Washington, D.C., is a dangerous city. On the other hand, if the Congressional district in which one resides includes either St. Louis or Baltimore, for example, where homicide rates are 4.1 and three times that in Washington, D.C., respectively, then the nation’s cap...
