For fourteen years, the Byron R. White Center for the Study of American Constitutional Law (BWC) has hosted the Constitution Day Project to provide law students and attorney volunteers the opportunity to teach thought-provoking and current constitutional questions to Colorado high school students. Law students went to high schools across the state to teach nearly 2,000 students about freedom of speech. Their questions covered the First Amendment and its protections, how schools limit their speech rights, Jimmy Kimmel, and AI. The discussions were lively, and the discussion facilitators encouraged opinions and thoughts from young minds to see what Colorado’s future holds.
