Attorney general to speak at CSC for Constitution Day
Nebraska Attorney General Jon Bruning will be the keynote speaker for Chadron State College’s observance of Constitution Day. His presentation will be Tuesday, Sept. 18, at 9:30 a.m. in the Student Center. It is open to the public free of charge.
In 2002, Bruning was elected the youngest attorney general in Nebraska’s history and ran unopposed for re-election in 2006. Prior to his service as attorney general, Bruning ran a law practice in Omaha and served six years in the Nebraska Legislature. Bruning, a Republican, has announced his intent to run for Chuck Hagel’s U.S. Senate seat which comes up for election in 2008.
A number of other activities to increase student awareness of the United States’ fundamental political principles are scheduled at Chadron State for Monday, Sept. 17, the actual date of Constitution Day. They include the distribution of pocket-sized reproductions of the Constitution, a quiz booth, video presentations and other displays.
Bruning’s speech also is the first installment of CSC’s Justice Studies Fall Speakers Series, which is focusing on the Nebraska Criminal and Legal Justice System.
