  • Class of 1981 New Student Handbook
    ()tJ~ 0 ~ @ ~ - ....... ,,,...... ~ @ It could almost begin "once upon a time." The necessary ingredi ents are there--a dream, a castle, a sense of ever after. But the tale is not a fable; it is the amazing story of Brandeis University. For more than a century American Jews had nurtured a dream of creating a university which evoked their ancient heritage of scholarship and their gratitude to a nation which offered them haven and freedom . On October 11, 1948, the dream became a reality. Th e first Jewish-sponsored, nonsectarian university in the United States, named in memory of Supreme Court Justice Louis D. Brandeis , opened its doors on the campus of what had been Middlesex Un iversity . Startling in contrast t o the few buildings which originally dotted the 250-acre campus stood--perhaps as a portend to future greatness--a castle .. This imposing structure, designed after medieval architecture, had been part of Middlesex. Known as the Usen Castle, it is still a campus landmark, but is now surrounded by 70 buildings--some perhaps more impressive, but none so unique . Dr . Abram L. Sachar, historian and teacher , became Brandeis' first president and served in that capacity for twenty years at which time he became chancellor of the University. His recently published book, A Host At Last, chronicles the fantas tic growth of Brandeis--thanks to the steadfast commi t ment and magnificent generosity of the American J ewish community. Dr . Marver H. Bernstein, former dean of the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princet on University, has been president since 1972.
