Celebrate 'Constitution Day' at Oakton
A conversation with Supreme Court Justices Stephen Breyer, Anthony Kennedy, and Sandra Day O'Connor highlights the celebration of Constitution Day, Friday, Sept. 15, at Oakton Community College.
The video program, "A Conversation on the Constitution: Judicial Independence," will be shown continuously, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., at both Oakton campus locations, 1600 E. Golf Road in Des Plaines, and 7701 N. Lincoln Ave. in Skokie. The 90-minute taped program features Breyer, Kennedy, and O'Connor in a discussion with high school students about how judicial safeguards allow judges to protect the rights of minorities and those with unpopular views.
Admission and parking are free.
The presentation is sponsored by NPR's "Justice Talking," in cooperation with the National Archives and Records Administration, the New York Times Knowledge Network, American Association of State Colleges and Universities, and others, including support from the Annenberg Foundation Trust at Sunnylands and the Foundation for the National Archives.
