Constitution Day Observed
September 16, 2011
In honor of Constitution Day 2011, The Riley Institute presented “A Republic to Keep?” on September 16, 2011. This student-acted original series of brief vignettes took a look at the founders’ division over what the actual structure of our government should be and how power would be divided. The furor that played out during the Constitutional Convention of 1789 was recreated, but it operated within the 21st century news and social media context.
