The Career & Civic Engagement Center is promoting two ways you can observe Constitution Day this year!
Off-Campus: On Tuesday, Sept. 17, the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia will offer free admission and special programming from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Activities include a live recitation of the Preamble, a Naturalization Ceremony, the "We, the People" show, and more. The National Constitution Center is located at 525 Arch St. in Philadelphia—use your SEPTA Key Card!
On-Campus: Constitution Day is also National Voter Registration Day! Career & Civic Engagement staff will be tabling in Erdman Dining Hall during lunch and in New Dorm Dining Hall during dinner, offering support for students who wish to register to vote in Pennsylvania. Look for the ½ñÈÕ³Ô¹Ï Votes logo and visit the tables for PA voter registration forms. Bring your questions about voting in the upcoming election—staff are happy to help!
