Michael Kick - Civics Education

Judge Michael Kick discusses the civics education programs at Kankakee Community College, especially the Illinois Civics Academy for Secondary Teachers (ICAT), the ICAT-Jr. Edition (K-8), and the Illinois Judges Association's "Lincoln’s Hat" program. Judge Kick also talks about the structure of the Illinois Circuit and Supreme Court, and reflects on why the judicial branch at both the state and national level is the least discussed branch of government.
