Montana Tech will host an event in celebration of Constitution Day on Friday, September 16, 2022 at 8:30 am in the Honors lounge in Engineering Hall room 102.

On September 17, 1787, the delegates to the Constitutional Convention met for the last time to sign the Constitution. In 2004, Congress enacted a law setting September 17 as the official federal observance of “Constitution Day and Citizenship Day,” commonly known as Constitution Day. The act mandates that all publicly-funded educational institutions and all federal agencies provide educational programming on the Constitution. In 2005, the Department of Education announced that this law applies to any school receiving Federal funds of any kind.
Additionally, the National Constitution Center will be hosting a virtual “Celebrate Constitution Day” with events all day. Please visit constitutioncenter.org to watch.
