GET LIT: Win a copy of Lee Bollinger's Uninhibited, Robust, and Wide-Open

Just as Lee Bollinger doesn't believe that online universities can ever trump the kind with quads and dormitories, his Uninhibited, Robust, and Wide-Open: A Free Press for a New Century argues that bloggers ought never to be mistaken for real journalists. (What about journalists who blog, Bolly?) "Web sites can enhance public debate," Bollinger says, " but they cannot replace the role of institutional press." Bollinger will give a talk Wednesday evening at the National Constitution Center, and in anticipation we're giving a way a copy to the first reader who can answer this First Amendment trivia question:

Who wrote the First Amendment, and when did it go into effect?

E-mail your answers to carolyn.huckabay@citypaper.net for a chance to win. If you can answer without using Google, you get extra honor system-based merit points. Lee Bollinger reading and signing, Wed., April 21, 6:30 p.m., $9-$15, National Constitution Center, 525 Arch St., 215.409.6700, constitutioncenter.org.
