Horowitz, Chair James Grehan Patricia Schechter Jonathan Seidel Portland State University 2015 Abstract The subject of Jews in sports is often times perceived as an oxymoronic research topic given the ethnic stereotypes that Jews are physically weak, unfit, and more focused on intellectual pursuits. However, Jews have had a long history and in- depth interaction with sports that is important to understand, not only to expand our perception of the Jewish people, but also to realize the important role sports play in social historiography.

Today, the university and the College of Engineering (CENG) have made sustainability a top priority. CENG Dean Mohammad Noori comments, “We are serious about sustainability, and not just because we believe in the need for environmental literacy, which is vital, but also because resource limitations are a reality in our rapidly changing global landscape. Engineering that is practical and economical requires consideration of societal, ethical, political, environmental, and sustainabil- ity issues.
