Field Trip to the Capital

    My Constitutional Law class had an "end of year" field trip to the state capital. 

The lower half of the walking stick being held by the statue George Washington was broken off during the civil war when Union Soldiers beat the statue until it broke


We sat in on three appellate cases at the Supreme Court and were able to tour the capital building, seeing both the Senate and House of Representatives.

The House of Representatives is made up of 124 members

The Senate consists of 46 members
