Student Announce September 12, 2023

The Constitution of the United State is the basic framework of our Democratic Republic. September 17th is designated as Constitution Day and Citizenship Day and each year the federal government encourages us to celebrate the Constitution and its impact on our lives. Given the 17th is a Sunday, we will host our commemorative Constitution Day programming on Monday, September 18th at 5pm in the SLC Small Events Space.

This collaborative event is supported through Social and Behavioral Sciences and The Center for Civic Leadership. Join us for a lively discussion and interactive program centered on Article II of the Constitution as we explore the foundation of the Presidency and what makes a great president. 

We will have light refreshments and voter registration resources available.

For any faculty wishing to offer extra credit, please email Cyan Corwine (corwincy@alfredstate.edu) with pertinent course information so that we can capture student engagement for you.
