Constitution Day at NAU

The NAU Conservatives, in honor of Constitution Day, utilized a variety of different means in passing out pocket Constitutions to the general student body. They based their operations right outside of the student union, placing them firmly in the center of the most trafficked area on campus. First, they quizzed students on the amendments. Surprisingly enough, there were a fair number of students who were more or less familiar with the Bill of Rights. The person who knew the most amendments was actually a student who was studying abroad here in the states, which they found to be pretty interesting. Furthermore, they asked students to attempt locating bases for leftist causes within the Constitution. Of course, this was done to no avail and many of the students were surprised when coming to this realization. Throughout the course of the day, they even encountered a professor who encouraged them with regard to what we were doing and stated that she watched “Glen Beck” on Fox News and also that NAU is “Berkeley East.” Their efforts were perceived fairly favorably, and, as a result, they felt successful in our endeavor to promote constitutional knowledge. All event attendees were given flyers and invited to attend next week's meeting (meetings are held at 7 pm upstairs in the Union expansion). They were entered into a raffle, in which the winner will receive a copy of Mark Levin's Liberty and Tyranny.
