Hillsdale’s Constitution Day Celebration
Pat Sajak, who is Vice-Chairman of the Hillsdale College Board of Trustees, is in Washington right now, as he has warned he would be, at the opening of the Kirby Center for Constitutional Studies and Citizenship, which is located across the street from the Heritage Foundation.
What Pat has not told you, however, is that, tomorrow and on Friday – which happens to be Constitution Day, the anniversary of the signing of the Constitution by the Framers – you can join him in our nation’s capital, virtually via the Web, for a two-day program on the Constitution in which there will be lectures, debates, and discussions on subjects such as:
- The Constitution and Free Markets
- The Future of Civic Education
- How to Interpret the Constitution
- National Security and the Patriot Act
- Tea Parties and the Constitution
- Lessons We Can Learn from George Washington
Among those speaking will be George Will, Richard Brookhiser, Michael Barone, and Bill Kristol, along with a number of scholars from the college.
Here you can find the schedule of events and a form with which to register for the Webcast.

Re: Hillsdale’s Constitution Day Celebration
Looks to be a great event, and the fact that we can participate via Webcast is wonderful news.
I had dinner and wonderful discussion with David Bobb the last time I was in Washington. Prior to my visit with David, I was disheartened and felt as if the city of Washington were a leech sucking the life out of me. After our lovely dinner, I felt invigorated and refreshed.
Now I just need to set time aside for the Kessler and Yoo events.
