He also shares what it is like to work at a PWI (Predominantly White Institution) as part of a predominantly Black staff. Hudgins describes what he enjoys about his job as well as challenges he faces at work. He also discusses whether the Johns Hopkins University and hospital system have a responsibility to give back to the city of Baltimore.
