Description
On November 7, 1997, University Trustee Richard J. Leon, JD '74 delivered the 54th annual Donahue Lecture entitled "Congressional Investigations: Are Partisan Politics Undermining Our Vital Institutions?" Leon was the first Suffolk graduate to present at the series.
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.
