New Courses in Jewish Studies

We are delighted to offer three new courses this year that highlight the diversity of the Jewish community. In the Fall, Dr. Max Thornton is teaching Queer Religions (Jewish 499/LGBT 499) and Dr. Amanda Ruppenthal Stein is teaching “American Jewish Culture & History Through Music” (Jewish 247). In the Spring, Rabbi Dr. Armin Langer will be teaching “Jews of Latin America” (Jewish/WLC 499; eventually Jewish/WLC 351). All three courses will be taught online with a synchronous component. We’re thrilled to have these new courses expanding our students’ learning, and thank Bader Philanthropies for making them possible.
