Description
The Donahue Lectures invited Supreme Judicial Court Justice Charles Fried to Suffolk on February 6, 1997, when he presented the 52nd Donahue Lecture, titled "Reflections on Crime and Punishment." Fried, who received an honorary degree from Suffolk Law School in 1996, spoke about the American criminal justice system, questioning poor prison conditions.
Since its inception in 1980, the Frank J. Donahue Memorial Lecture Series has been sponsored by The Suffolk University Law Review, and annually attracts lecturers from among the nation’s top legal scholars and jurists. Each Donahue Lecturer is an exceptionally prominent legal scholar who delivers a lecture at Suffolk University Law School that forms the basis for a Lead Article to be published in the Law Review shortly thereafter.
The Law Review instituted this lecture series in 1980 to commemorate the Honorable Frank J. Donahue, former faculty member, trustee, and treasurer of Suffolk University. Judge Donahue graduated from Suffolk University Law School in 1921, and served as an Associate Justice of the Superior Court of Massachusetts for forty-two years — the longest term in that court’s history.
