Posted by Stephanie Willen Brown on 03/21/13 at 3:07 PM
If you need statistics about anything, try one of these two great databases:

- Statistical Abstract Social, political, and economic statistics about residents of the United States.
Both offer data in table and downloadable Excel format.

Happy First Amendment Day!

What's YOUR favorite civil liberty? Here at Park, we like them all, but the First Amendment occupies a special place in our hearts. So we're especially excited about UNC students, faculty, and staff coming together to celebrate the First Amendment! Organized by the UNC Center for Media Law and Policy, the university's 4th annual First Amendment Day gives us lots of chances to explore, discuss, and exemplify our First Amendment freedoms.
