Celebrating the signing of the Constitution began in 2004 when Congress passed legislation, authored by Senator Robert Byrd of West Virginia, which designated September 17 as Constitution
Day. On that day in 1787, thirty‐nine of the fifty‐five delegates to the Constitutional Convention signed the United States Constitution, one of the most important political documents ever drafted.
Each September 17, educational institutions hold educational programs that encourage awareness of the Constitution.

Geek Speak on Thursday!
Sept. 17 | 4:00 pm | Jonas 110
Please join Dr. Tim Martinez for this week's Geek Speak "The Man on the Motorcycle: The
Revolutionary Thought of Che Guevara" Many accounts of Che Guevara’s life have focused on biographical details. This presentation will go beyond these interesting events to explore the ideas that guided his revolutionary activity during key parts of his life. Specifically, it will look briefly at the philosophical background of his thinking in the writings of Marx and Lenin, how these ideas evolved in his own thinking from the time of his epiphany during his iconic motorcycle tour of South
America to his speculations on the nature of revolutionary change shortly before his death in
Bolivia. This presentation will help us understand the relation between ideas and human action. It will also be greatly beneficial by giving attendees some of the intellectual substance behind image of the bearded man in the beret.
