[hr-education-na] Re: USA: Study suggests more civic education needed on First Amendment

Thanks for this.  As you said, the results reported are, unfortunately,
far from surprising.  In fact, I've seen worse -- such as a high
percentage/majority not even knowing that the First Amendment protects
freedom of speech or religion, etc.  This kind of ignorance is, I think, a
real basis for alarm.  One of my major outside-the-university service
projects is assisting the Ohio Center for Law Related Education with
various civic education programs.  In the future, you may wish, and
certainly would be well qualified, to provide this kind of service
yourself.  If interested, check out the OCLRE web-site, at www.oclre.org,
and the links found there.
