ROBERT SHEEHAN 1930-1990 Robert Sheehan, professor of criminal justice at Northeastern University and 1989 recipient of the ACJS Founders Award, passed away in May 1990. He was a pioneer in criminal justice education who had a profound influence on many students and practitioners. He joined the faculty of the School of Police Administration at Michigan State University in 1957. In 1960 he moved to Northeastern University where he developed what became the College of Criminal Justice, serving as department chair and the first Dean of the College. In 1967, Bob was elected president of the International Association of Police Professors (IAPP), the organization that later became ACJS. In that capacity he worked with Patrick Murphy, then Assistant Director of the Office of Law Enforcement Assistance, Jim Stinchcomb, then with IACP, and congressmen William Anderson of Tennessee and James Scheur of New York on legislation and lobbying that were crucial in getting the Johnson administration to add money for education (LEEP) and research (NILECJ) in the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1967. While president of the IAPP he was an outspoken critic of the FBI's failure to develop better measures of crime and the federal government's failure to adequately fund crime-related research, positions that won him some notoriety within the police professorship at the time. Following his tenure as IAPP president, Bob concentrated his academic work at Northeastern and on police consulting in the northeast. He was perhaps the major provider of police management studies in Massachusetts, a labor that reflected his broad expertise in police administration and his deep-felt belief in humane, democratic, and efficient policing. In these studies he regularly exposed the inefficient, the brutal, and the unresponsive. He had a special knack for talking to police officers and administrators and discovering the weaknesses as we!' as the strengths in a police department. Most importantly, he had an unerring vision of policing that respected basic standards of justice, fairness, and human decency, he knew when that vision wasn't being met, and he had the courage to say so. His moral and ethical side was also the strongest element of his teaching. While not eschewing facts and principles, Bob as a teacher sought to make students confront their values and prejudices. Bob was pessimistic about how well we've been doing this job. It would please him greatly if, as we teach our facts and principles and theories, and as we chase the grail of an empirical science of criminal justice, we could also concern ourselves with the development of compassionate, humane, prejudice-free practitioners of policing and criminal justice.
