Your citizenship duties and obligation dictate that you carry your learning beyond the classroom and the courtroom to the town halls and the neighborhoods — that you join in the debate so necessary in a democracy to help inform and shape opinions with regard to the Constitution and Bill of Rights. That is the glue that holds together our society.” ~ The Hon. Nathaniel R. Jones, May 20, 2006 3 Building on Our Momentum
