FRANKLIN, Ind. – U.S. Senator Todd Young was the guest speaker today at the Franklin College Constitution Day Convocation.

Young’s lecture titled “Franklins In Our Mist” addressed how Benjamin Franklin’s legacy can help inspire a new generation of American innovators to uphold the United States Constitution. Young took questions from the audience following his lecture.

“Franklin used his precious time and talents to shape the course of his own era and to shape the very course of human history,” Young said to a room full of students, faculty, staff and community members. “He left a model for all of us to do the same in ways big and small. I know that you, each and every one of you, will do your own part in your own way to ensure that our nation and its constitution stand and inspire long after we are all gone.”
