In 2004, Congress passed a law requiring any school or college receiving federal funds to teach about the Constitution on or around Sept. 17, the day "We the People" adopted the Constitution in 1787.
Today's New York Times has an article about how most students still don't know much about the Day -- but BU and the ACLU get special mention for bucking the trend. Anthony Romero, Executive Director of the national ACLU, will speak Monday night at Boston University's Constitution Day observance.
