K-STATE CELEBRATING CONSTITUTION DAY SEPT. 17

MANHATTAN -- A special display and a discussion of domestic spying will highlight the celebration of Constitution Day, Monday, Sept. 17, at Kansas State University.

Activities will be in the K-State Student Union and all are free and open to the public.

Table displays of materials and activities about the Constitution will be available from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the Union food court.

Two local attorneys will take part in the Constitution Day discussion, "Domestic Spying: Who is Listening," at 2:30 p.m. in the Union's Forum Hall. Richard Seaton, university attorney, and Barry Clark will take a look at the pros and cons of the topic. The discussion will be moderated by former Kansas Gov. John Carlin, a visiting professor of political science at K-State.

The educational program about the Constitution is an annual event at K-State. It is required under federal law for educational institutions that receive federal funds from the U.S. Department of Education.
