Trust me when I say that we're extremely glad that this meeting is now underway. Not that we ever lost our confidence, of course, but back in December and January it was hard to see how things could possible come together in time. Numerous individuals deserve recognition for pulling this year's program together - most particularly, though, Program Chair Jack Greene and our new Association Manager, Laura Monaco. Laura hasn't had a day off since joining ACJS on January 4th. She has managed to do in two months what normally took the national office four months to accomplish. When you meet her here in Orlando, please give her your most heartfelt thanks and tell her how glad you are that she's our new CEO. T he program this year has several outstanding features, including Plenary Sessions each day Wednesday through Friday, receptions Wednesday and Thursday evenings, and a great lineup of over 350 panels. One of the most important events is the Awards Ceremony on Thursday evening from 7:00-8:00 p.m. - please attend and help us recognize this year's honorees. My greatest concern is that our outstanding program and ACJS members' fabled devotion to duty will prevent you from fully enjoying the great weather here in Orlando, this beautiful facility, and all the Disney attractions just a few minutes away. So, please fight those "all work and no play" tendencies. Fight that noble urge to attend every panel, workshop, and roundtable. Pick out some good sessions, of course (and please attend those in which you are on the pane!!). But otherwise, follow your doctors' advice. Relax. Recreate. Enjoy. Get some sun, some fresh air, and have some fun here at Disney World. After all, it'll be a whole 'nother century before we meet over on the West Coast in Disneyland. Gary Cordner ACJS President WELCOME FROM PROGRAM CHAIR March 9, 1999 Dear ACJS Annual Conference Participant: Welcome to Orlando, home of sunshine, Disney and ACJS's 1999 Annual Meeting. "Crime and Justice Across the Millennium". We are especially pleased to host this year's conference at the Disney's Coronado Springs Resort, a beautiful setting for our meetings. This year's Program Committee, with a lot of help from the newly established ACJS National Office in Alexandria, Virginia, has crafted a challenging and stimulating program, offering over 350 panels, workshops, roundtables, poster sessions, and plenary sessions. Of particular importance are the plenary sessions. On Wednesday, Professor AI Blumstein will speak on violent crime trends and on a national network of academic researchers who are studying many aspects of crime and violence. Also on Wednesday, there is an important plenary session devoted to the new ACJS Code of Ethics. Finally, on Thursday, there is a plenary session focus on concerns with what appears to be a growing "crisis in confidence" with the justice system. The academic community can help understand the dynamics of this crisis in confidence and rebuild public confidence in our systems of justice. In addition to a fine program of research and scholarship there are several tours available for ACJS conference attendees. These tours focus on aspects of the justice system and private security. And, don't forget to spend some time at an expansive exhibit hall with publishers from all over the world. This year's program has several important receptions. Mark your calendar for the President's Address and Reception on Wednesday night, and the Awards Presentation and Student reception following on Thursday night. We hope that you enjoy your stay at the Coronado Springs Resort and also enjoy the surround attractions in Orlando. Once again, welcome to Orlando! Jack R.
