Ben Franklin once said, \u201cOnly a virtuous people are capable of freedom.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat did that statement mean for America\u2019s early days, and what does it mean for us today?\u201d asks Bobb in his lecture \u201cHumility, Moral Virtue and the Constitution.\u201d<\/p>\n

Humility is not the first quality most people associate with the United States of America. Yet for the nation\u2019s founders, humility was an important virtue for anyone entrusted with political power.<\/p>\n

Hubris had marked the downfall of many regimes in human history. How could the creation of the Constitution, its framers wondered, be different?<\/p>\n

About Constitution Day<\/h3>\n

In 2004, the U.S. Congress passed bipartisan legislation authorizing September 17th, 1787, the day the delegates to the Philadelphia Constitutional Convention signed the U.S. Constitution, as an official holiday. In 2005, the U.S. Department of Education authorized that any educational institution receiving federal funds should host educational activities during the week of the Constitution\u2019s birthday.<\/p>\n

Past UTC Constitution Day lectures have featured nationally and internationally known scholars and teachers Josiah Bunting, James Ceaser, Bradley Birzer, Michael Federici, Wilfred McClay and Richard Gamble. The general public, the UTC community and educators and students from a variety of schools and colleges in the region are cordially invited to attend.<\/p>\n

For other information about the event including reserved seating for groups and individuals please contact Jeffrey Melnik at\u00a0edast@utc.edu<\/a>\u00a0or call 423-425-2118.<\/p>\n
