It’s Constitution Day

Friday, September 17th, is Constitution Day. September 17th marks the anniversary of the adoption of the United States Constitution by the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia in 1787. We pause each year of this day to celebrate the Constitution as the cornerstone of our democratic republic. We also reflect on how current political trends live up or fall short of our founding Constitutional principles.

Today, we invite members of the Saint Joseph’s community to explore the web-based resources listed below.
