Info For
Elmira College students used art to become more familiar with the U.S. Constitution and its amendments.
Each year, students in Jan Kather’s Electronic Art Studio course celebrate Constitution and Citizenship Day on September 17 and Constitution Week, which runs September 17-23, by graphically illustrating an amendment or section of the Constitution that speaks to them. The posters are on display in the Gannett-Tripp Library through Reunion and Family Weekend on October 18.
“The Constitution provides the students with a variety of topics to focus on,” shared Kather. “The 19th Amendment, which gave women the right to vote, was the most popular amendment this year. Five women students chose to illustrate it.”
Kather, EC Instructor of Art, has assembled the exhibit for over ten years in various classes. She teaches the students that the Daughters of the American Revolution began the celebration of the Constitution in 1955, by petitioning Congress to set aside September 17-23 annually for the observance of Constitution Week. The resolution was later adopted by the U.S. Congress and signed into public law on August 2, 1956, by President Dwight D. Eisenhower.
“Working on this poster project for Constitution Day made me realize that I had never looked into what the Constitution depicts, and I have been an American my whole life,” said Birch Gorman ’27, a Finance major.
Ole Esselmann ’28, a Finance major from Germany, shared how he was “interested in the citizenship amendment.” He found it intriguing that a citizen by birth or naturalization is protected by the Fourteenth Amendment.
