The John Jay College of Criminal Justice, in New York City, is named after the statesman who played many roles in the young country.

Even after much hard work and many compromises, the Constitution still was not complete. Leaders in the states saw many flaws that had to be fixed. The key issue was that the Constitution did not include protection for individual rights. It mainly addressed how the states and the central government would run the country. But leaders from several states wanted to make sure that individual rights would not get trampled on by the government. They believed that certain freedoms were inalienable (guaranteed). Just like people have the right to breathe air, they also have other rights based solely on the fact that they are alive. Those inalienable rights had to be protected so no government could ever take them away. A Bill of Rights was needed, but it would take four more years after ratifying the Constitution, and several visionary men, to create it.
