Celebrate Constitution Day by learning about the U.S. Constitution! Revive your history skills in this seminar as you learn from a distinguished panel of constitutional law scholars, a state Supreme Court justice, solicitor general and law school dean. Start the morning with a review of the history of the U.S. Constitution. Learn how the U.S. Constitution came to be and how the document itself works. Move into present-day history, with a review of the application of the U.S. Constitution in cases before the U.S. Supreme Court over the past two years. The seminar will transition to a review of constitutional cases currently pending before the Court. The program will wrap up with the question-and-answer segment. There is no better way to commemorate the U.S. Constitution on Constitution Day. Register now!
