If you will it, it is no dream.” Theodore Herzl

He recounted the four-year journey of the program from certificate to major, and thanked everyone who had made it possible, from the students to the faculty to the family and community that supported him and the program over the years.
Certificates in Jewish Studies were granted to: Corey Rachel Jaffe and Emilia H. Levin (Winter, 2011); Ren Thomas Scherling, Zachary Joseph Siegel, Evan Francine Taksar, Veronica Lee Victor and Meghan Elizabeth Zibby.
2012 Majors in Jewish Studies: Rachel Ariella Allen, Carly Richelle Coons and Irene Deborah Skupsky.
