Also, the constitution is from 1791. I get that people would cite it and think itīs still relevant, but isnīt it a little weak as an argument in modern times ? I mean, when iīm writing my current paper on modern media development iīm not going to get my information off a book from the 60s.
on the "sending them back to school" issue: Thereīs just no right answer to that one, especially with kids that young. They could not get the significance (of the building, not the event) or they could be scared off (and associate it with the event) going into any other big building or any other school.
