  • Endowment Book of Life
    ,ntv harua “Plants bear witness to the reality of roots.” - Maimonides This Endowment Book of Life was created by the members of the Harry Greenstein Legacy Society, and we gratefully dedicate it to them — the visionary men and women who gave life to the ancient Jewish prayer: Help us remember the Jewish past we have inherited, and keep us ever mindful of the Jewish future which we must secure and enrich. Our community flourishes today and will grow in perpetuity because they planted the seeds of caring and nurtured its roots. In these pages, they share their hopes and ideals with future generations — the Jews of tomorrow who will be inspired to renew this precious legacy in years to come. 1 Lynn Abeshouse The Yom Kippur War was my very first memory as a little girl of both my parents calling upon our community to help our Jewish people in a time of great crisis. Through the years, my family’s involvement within the Jewish community, and at The Associated, consisted of various philanthropic leadership positions – my father, Dr. George Abeshouse, chaired the Doctors’ campaign division on many occasions, my mother, Sara Offit Abeshouse, chaired Top Gifts and other campaign leadership positions within the Women’s Division, and my uncle, Morris W. Offit, chaired numerous positions both nationally and internationally. These were just some of the examples that became an integral part of my life lessons. I learned that it is every Jewish person’s obligation to assist those less fortunate and to always try one’s best to prioritize this value in one’s life.

  • Jewish Fraternal Organizations of the Early 20Th Century Hal Bookbinder ([email protected])
    Jewish Fraternal Organizations of the early 20th Century Hal Bookbinder ([email protected]) Our ancestors created a wide variety of organizations to provide mutual support, from religious to social, educational, insurance and burial services. “Landsmanshaften” brought together individuals who came from the same town in Europe. Sometimes established as lodges of a fraternal organization, like the Independent Order, Sons of Jacob. These organizations paralleled existing American ones incorporating the pomp and secrecy of Masonry, Pythians and Odd Fellows. These organizations provided a safety net through life and health insurance and offered social opportunities to lead and to be recognized. Hundreds of thousands of our immigrant ancestors participated during the heyday of these organizations in the first half of the 20th century. Most were male-focused. Women participated through auxiliaries and occasionally fully independent orders. Understanding these organizations provides important insights into the lives of our immigrant ancestors. Over a score of major Jewish Fraternal Organizations were formed between 1840 and 1920, including American Star Order Independent Order Western Star Improved Order of B’nai B’rith (now, B'nai Independent Order, B’nai B’rith B'rith International) Independent Workmen’s Circle of America Independent Order Ahavas Israel Jewish National Workers’ Alliance of America Independent Order B’rith Abraham Kesher Shel Barzel Independent Order B’rith Sholom Order of B’rith Abraham Independent Order Free Sons of Israel Order of the Sons of Zion (now, “B’nai Zion”) Independent Order of American Israelites Order of the United Hebrew Brothers Independent Order of Free Sons of Judah Progressive Order of the West Independent Order of Sons of Abraham United Order of the True Sisters, Inc.

  • The United Nations Fraternity: Tau Delta Phi
    The United Nations Fraternity: Tau Delta Phi Calvin Lee ’15 RE 221, “Topics in Maine’s Jewish History,” January 2013 Since the 1830s, the Greek letter system has been a dominating presence on college campuses in the United States. For young men and women, these student organizations provided housing, lasting friendships, social status, and membership into a network of powerful and influential people. However, despite the various social benefits and advantages offered by fraternities, many of these exclusive brotherhoods perpetuated both racial and religious discrimination on college campuses. Fueled by waves of immigration, both World Wars, and a rapid growth in those seeking higher education, fraternities quickly became a barrier that separated young men and women based on their racial, ethnic, or religious identities. Between the years 1881 and 1924, there was an explosion of over two and a half million Jewish immigrants from various Central and Eastern European countries. These immigrants were driven from their native lands by threats of persecution as well as the scarcity of economic opportunity and mobility. Such economic difficulties were the result of the industrialization and urbanization of societies in the 19th century. Millions who struggled to even feed their families traveled across the Atlantic to what they hoped would be the “land of opportunity.” Many Central and Eastern European Jews also sought refuge in the United States from political upheaval, including the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917 and the formation of the Third Communist International two years later. In response to the surge of immigration into the U.S., the government imposed the National Origins Act of 1924, a quota limiting the number of immigrants that could be admitted into the country annually.

  • Fraternities
    Inventory of the Fraternities Records in the Northern Illinois University Archives UA 41 Page 1 INTRODUCTION The University Archives acquired the Inter-Fraternity Council and fraternity records in several installments between 1966 and 1976. Literary rights are dedicated to the public. There are no restrictions on access to the collection. 15 boxes 10.0 linear feet 1928-2004 SCOPE AND CONTENT This collection contains material from the Inter-Fraternity Council and twenty-nine fraternities. Inter-Fraternity Council records include minutes of meetings and information on Rush and Greek Week. Records for the fraternities include constitutions, histories and correspondence. In some cases, a local fraternity became affiliated with a national fraternity. Records from both organizations were combined under the name of the national fraternity followed, in parentheses, by the name of the local fraternity. The collection contains records of service and honorary fraternities as well as Greek letter social fraternities. HISTORICAL SKETCH Fraternities were first organized at Northern Illinois University at the same time sororities were first being established. This was during President Adams' administration, 1929-1949. The first fraternity on campus was Alpha Phi Omega, organized in 1928 as a service fraternity. Other groups followed and by 1972 there were twenty-two national and local fraternities on campus. The Inter-Fraternity Council was organized in October of 1954. Its purpose was to unite the goals of the many fraternities on campus. It assumed, along with the Panhellenic Council, the responsibilities of mediating disputes between organizations and settling problems concerning rush, housing and hazing. The University, however, maintained final authority with the powers of probation and cancellation of charters.
