If you are familiar with the US Constitution, you no doubt have read the amendments formally recognized as the Bill of Rights. In the first 10 Amendments are found the protections for some of the basic human rights of Americans:

1^st Amendment:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

Apparently, the University of Hawaii at Hilo has forgotten the Bill of Rights or simply no longer teach the US Constitution. That would be the only explanation for why an American institution of Higher Education would attempt to prohibit the distribution of copies of the US Constitution. Yet, the administration did prevent students from the campus chapter of Young Americans for Liberty. (After all, it certainly sounds like a dangerous and subversive group)
