About Constitution Day
On September 17, 1787, the Constitutional Convention completed its work and 39 delegates signed the Constitution of the United States. Constitution Day celebrates this auspicious event in the founding of the United States and the resilience and flexibility of the framers' work that we still interact with today.
Students, faculty, and members of the general public are invited to participate in the events celebrating this text. To learn more about the Constitution, its text, and its issues, see the resources on these tabs.
Be sure to visit the Merrill-Cazier Library's Lower Level on September 17, 2024 to pickup a free pocket Constitution and a free flag pin while supplies last. Celebrate with a photobooth and pickup some treats from 11 a.m. - 1 p.m. While you're here, check out the resources that are part of the Federal Depository Library Program.
