2011: Virginia E. Sloan

Constitutional Challenges of the 9/11 World

OSU marks Constitution Day 2011 with a public talk by Virginia "Ginny" Sloan, president and founder of the Constitution Project.

Sloan will focus on the constitutional and civil liberty challenges the country still faces a decade after 9/11.  The event began at 3:30 p.m., Monday, Sept. 19 in the Peggy V. Helmerich Browsing Room, Edmon Low Library.

The Constitution Project was founded to protect the constitutional amendment process after several amendments were proposed in the 1990s. The project contributes speakers and resources to educational events including Constitution Day programming.

Sloan brings diverse experience to this year’s Constitution Day program. She is a special counsel to the Council of the American Bar Association's Section of Individual Rights and Responsibilities and is a member of the Board of Directors of the Southern Center for Human Rights and the Mid-Atlantic Innocence Project. She also serves on the Honorary Board of Directors of the Washington Council of Lawyers and the ABA Death Penalty Moratorium Implementation Project's Steering Committee. Â
