Constitution Day Reading Discussion Group

Sep 8, 2015

Join the Rosenfield Program to celebrate Constitution Day by discussing excerpts from the new book The Law of the Land: A Grand Tour of Our Constitutional Republic by Yale Law professor Akhil Reed Amar.

With Professor Sarah Purcell leading the discussion, we'll discuss chapters 5 and 6 on Kansas and Iowa — plus anything else that interests you.

Meet with the reading group over lunch, from noon to 1 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 17, in the Joe Rosenfield ’25 Center, Room 209.

The book is available for sale in the Grinnell College Bookstore (students can charge the cost to the Rosenfield Program if cost is prohibitive), and an electronic copy can be accessed through the Library catalog.

Akhil Reed Amar will be speaking at Grinnell on September 23.

Grinnell welcomes and encourages the participation of people with disabilities. You can request accommodations from the event sponsor or Conference Operations.
