Every March/April, the Guarini Center and Criminal Justice Department at Saint Peter's College jointly present the Annual Stephen D. Doyle Criminal Justice Symposium on campus.  The purpose of the symposium is to discuss current issues and challenge students to understand the nature of the field they are entering.  As problems of social control have grown and become more complex, so have the actions and reactions required of law enforcement and criminal justice agencies.  Predicting the future is a perilous task.

The 8th Annual Stephen D. Doyle Criminal Justice Symposium was held on April 14, 2008.  The topic was New Jersey's Abolition of the Death Penalty.  In the photo below, Bryon Halsey talks to the students about his death row experience.  Mr. Halsey was on death row for nearly 2 decades.  With the help of the Innocence Project, he was exonerated.
