This townhall series is generously sponsored by Liz Lange.
Long before COVID-19, Jews were asking serious questions about the state of American universities: Is the American Jewish love affair with elite colleges coming to an end? Why have so many universities tolerated anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism? Does university culture strengthen or undermine Jewish identity and Jewish faith? Now, with the Coronavirus crisis in full force, the American model of higher education may be facing its greatest disruption in a generation. Many students and families are wondering: What does this all mean?
The Tikvah Fund is pleased to announce a multi-part “townhall series” on the future of college from a Jewish perspective. The lineup of speakers and topics is first-rate. Have a look and sign up today:
