    ISI's "First State Initiative" gets started at UD

    ISI has launched the "First State Initiative" with a kick-off lecture at the University of Delaware on September 20, with Dr. Matt Spalding from the Heritage Foundation speaking on the topic, "George Washington as the Model of American Statesmanship."

    The "First State Initiative" is a concentrated series of ISI programming focused in the first state to ratify the Constitution, Delaware - which also happens to be the state which houses ISI's national headquarters.

    Delaware's News Journal mentioned the new ISI initiative in the first state and about 80 people attended the lecture at the University of Delaware.

    The first state initiative also includes a George Washington essay contest for Delaware's high school students as well as lectures at colleges, universities, and high schools located in the first state. ISI hopes to vastly increase our presence in the first state to help give back to the local community that we are a part of by providing resources to Delaware's best students and teachers.
