Former Iowa Finance Authority (IFA) Director Dave Jamison, who was fired last March for sexually harassing female employees, has been hired by the Contemporary Services Corporation (CSC), which provides security at Iowa State athletic events.

However, after the Associated Press reported Jamison’s employment Thursday and College Democrats released a statement demanding Jamison be “swiftly removed from involvement in any activities at Iowa State,” John McCarroll, director of university relations, said Jamison will no longer be assigned to events at Iowa State.

In an email to the Daily, McCaroll said in the past Jamison has “on occasion been assigned by CSC to provide services under its contract with the university as a parking attendant and usher.”

In its statement, College Democrats also demanded Iowa State “investigate and take action to remedy the hiring practices of Contemporary Services Corp.”

McCarroll said, per the university’s current agreement with CSC, the firm hires its own employees and “generally determines which of its employees provide services to the university.”

The news of Jamison’s involvement comes only three days after the Des Moines Register reported the Iowa Appeal Board voted to pay two women a combined $4.1 million to settle their sexual harassment claims.

During his time as IFA director, Jamison publicly groped one woman and forced another to watch a “pornographic video” while asking her questions about her sexual life and preferences, according to an investigation report on the allegations against Jamison released in September.

Jamison served as Story County treasurer from 1995 until 2010 and became friends with Gov. Kim Reynolds while she was treasurer of Clarke County. According to the report, Jamison “regularly touted his relationship with Governor Reynolds to other employees at IFA,” which “may have discouraged reports of his behavior.”

Reynolds was notified of Jamison’s behavior on March 24, and terminated him immediately. One month later, Reynolds contacted the Weinhardt Law Firm in Des Moines and requested it conduct an investigation into the allegations, according to the report.

Shortly after the report was released, Reynolds issued a statement reaffirming her decision to terminate Jamison and condemning his behavior.

“I had no idea that he behaved this way,” Reynolds said in the statement. “I never witnessed or experienced anything like what is described in the report. Had I known, I would have fired him a long time ago. There is no excuse for this kind of behavior.”
