A two-day conference intended, in the wordsof its organizer, to produce more light than heat,the Fourth Annual Harry Frank GuggenheimSymposium on Crime in America returned toJohn Jay on February 2-3, with journalists,academicians and practitioners from across theUnited States taking a nuanced look at recentand impending changes in criminal justice.“This symposium has become a meetingplace for people in criminal justice, a field that’schanging even as we speak,” said StephenHandelman, Director of the Center on Media,Crime and Justice, which organized the event,with funding from the Harry Frank GuggenheimFoundation.Focusing on the theme “A New Beginning?Exploring the Criminal Justice Challenges Overthe Next Four Years,” the symposium wastedno time before diving into one of the thorniestissues currently on the American agenda, aspanelists discussed the nation’s distressedeconomy and its relationship to crime trends.Crime trends, like economic conditions, arecharacterized by volatility, observed ProfessorRichard Rosenfeld of the University of Missouri-St. Louis. While Rosenfeld’s research showedsimilar patterns between crime trends andconsumer confidence, he said that an increase incrime is not inevitable despite the recent sharpreversals in the economy. “After all,” he said,“crime did not increase substantially during theGreat Depression.”Professor Delores Jones-Brown, Director ofthe Center on Race, Crime and Justice said theObama Administration must deal with the “lackof legitimacy for police in communities of color.”With the economic downturn, she added, peoplemay seek out jobs in law enforcement solelyfor the pay and benefits, rather than for public-service reasons, thereby increasing the potentialfor incidents of excessive or lethal use of force bypolice, particularly against young black males.Col. Dean Esserman, the Police Chief ofProvidence, RI, called on the assembled journal-ists to “tell the story” that America is losing itschildren to violence. “We bury our children or wearrest them. Where’s the moral outrage?” Esser-man said. “The story is not being told.”Keynote speaker Judith S. Kaye, who recentlyretired after 15 years as Chief Judge of the NewYork State Court of Appeals, was introduced byPresident Jeremy Travis as “one of my heroesin this world.” Kaye, who was making her firstpublic appearance since stepping down from thebench, urged attendees to focus on the “crucialbut thoroughly unfulfilled job of educating thepublic about criminal justice matters.”Among the issues that Kaye pointed to werethe cost of incarceration compared to the costof education; the prosecution of certain juvenileoffenders as adults; and the need to providealternatives to criminal justice, such as youthcourts or restorative justice. “This is the time forall of us who care about justice in this country toroll up our sleeves and get to work,” Kaye said.Steven Brill, founder of
 American Lawyer 
 magazine, Court TV and Verified Identity PassInc., served as keynote speaker for the sympo-sium’s awards luncheon, and reminded the audi-ence of his rule for covering the justice system:“Skepticism is an absolutely essential virtue.”“The real challenge for us as reporters is notto be anyone’s lapdogs,” said Brill.The symposium also included sessions on“solutions-oriented” crime coverage, privacyand civil liberties, the future of forensics, and theonline world and crime.Deadlines are looming for qualified John Jaystudents to apply for hundreds of thousandsof dollars in scholarship funds, and dozens ofawards for graduating seniors.“We have no shortage of highly qualifiedstudents at the College, and we’re alwayslooking for more,” said Vice President forEnrollment Management Richard Saulnier.“We’re trying to ensure that institutionalscholarship funds are being spent for thepurposes they were intended, which is why weare encouraging as many qualified students aspossible to apply.”The College offers scholarships for freshmen,sophomores, upper-division and graduatestudents as well as some specifically aimed atwomen, international students, law enforcementA newspaper need not be big to achieve bigthings, as was proven by Christine Young, areporter for the 80,000-circulation

of Middletown, NY, one of the 2009 win-ners of John Jay College’s Excellence in CriminalJustice Reporting Awards.Young was honored at a luncheon on Febru-ary 3 for her investigative report on the 1989conviction of Lebrew Jones, who has spent 20years in prison for the murder of a Manhattanprostitute. Young’s article, “I Didn’t Do That Mur-der,” prompted the Manhattan District Attorney’sOffice to open a new investigation into the case.The awards are presented annually inconjunction with the Harry Frank GuggenheimSymposium on Crime in America.A second award was presented to Eric Nalderand the investigative team from the

Information is alsoavailable in the Officeof Scholarship Services,Room 1285N.“We’re taking a more strategic direction withregard to scholarships,” said Scaduto. “We wantto recruit and retain qualified students, based onthings like academics, public service and activitiesoutside of academics, and then support themonce they’re on campus, keeping them active inthe larger John Jay community.”Scaduto noted that a “representative” 11-member scholarship committee, chaired bySaulnier, has been working proactively to informstudents about available scholarships andencouraging them to apply. “We develop criteria,select candidates and set application deadlines,”he said.A new Web feature allows students to signup for the “John Jay College Scholars Network”to receive information about new and currentscholarships, application information anddeadlines, invitations to workshops and seminars,and other relevant updates.
 Deadlines Loom for Scholarship Aid to Qualified Students

The John Jay baseball program gave a tip of the collective cap on January 24 to two prominent members of the local base-ball scene, at the annual Lou DeMartino Memorial Dinner. John Brant, a member of the John Jay Athletics Hall of Fame and three-year team co-captain in the late 1970s, was presented with the Distinguished Baseball Alumni Award. Brant, a summacum laude graduate of John Jay and a decorated lieutenant with the Port Authority Police Department, told guests at thefundraising dinner that “playing at John Jay was one of the greatest points of my life.” Lou Santos (right), a longtime figurein sandlot baseball and youth baseball instruction, was honored with the Lou Demartino Lifetime Achievement Award. DanPalumbo, John Jay’s head baseball coach and interim Director of Athletics, presented the awards and served as the dinner’smaster of ceremonies.
toward making the College a more paperlessoperation.“I can’t wait for the PAF bonfire,” she said,referring to the personnel action forms thatwould be phased out by the creation of an onlinereappointment process.Praveen Panchal, John Jay’s Chief InformationOfficer, moderated the gathering and pointedout that existing CUNY systems are “archaic,difficult to maintain and failing every day. Thelack of information in the existing systems,Panchal said, leads to enormous redundancy andinaccuracy.According to Panchal, CUNY has more than35,000 employees, with no comprehensivehuman resources system. In addition, theUniversity receives more than 10,000 jobapplications a year.The Talent Acquisition Management (TAM)module of CUNY FIRST will be used to helpstreamline the hiring process, and then a HumanCapital Management (HCM) module will comeinto play, handling a broad range of personnelfunctions such as time and leave, reappointment,and changes in personal information or status.The two modules will be the first humanresources components to roll out, with animplementation target date of summer 2009.The entire system, Panchal emphasized, isdesigned with privacy and security in mind.Personal information can only be viewed by theindividual in question and authorized Collegeofficials.The new system’s potential for doing massreappointments as opposed to processingthem individually, and its “Quick Hire” functionfor speeding the process of hiring collegeassistants and adjuncts, were among the “wow!moments” noted by Colón, who underscoredher own excitement with CUNY FIRST by addingthat “I came into HR for the people, not thepaperwork.”CUNY FIRST is being launched in stages, withthe entire system expected to be operational bythe winter of 2010-2011.
