In 1987, the U.S. Sentencing Commission transformed criminal law in the United States in releasing the original Federal Sentencing Guidelines. From the start, Hofstra Law was at the forefront of sentencing scholarship, publishing key insights from the earliest days of the Commission.

Please join us in welcoming distinguished members of the Judiciary, original Commissioners, and leading scholars in commemorating the original U.S. Sentencing Commission and marking the 30th Anniversary of the Sentencing Guidelines.

Keynote Address by:
Hon. Stephen G. Breyer, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States
