  • New School Histories
    New School Histories ULEC2800, Fall 2019 Tuesday, 4:00-5:15pm Julia Foulkes, [email protected], 66 W. 12th St., Rm 908 Rm. 104, Univ. Center Mark Larrimore, [email protected], 65 W.11th St., Rm 454 When the New School for Social Research opened its doors a hundred years ago, it offered courses in the social sciences and public affairs – and a new vision of higher education. It was not a university; it did not offer degrees. The founders thought that people would come to the school for “no other purpose than to learn.” A century later, the New School has changed in almost every way. Design, the arts, a spirit of activism, and degree programs dominate. But the school continues to strive to offer disciplinary experimentation, political involvement, and a global lens that offers a critical perspective on higher education. In what ways have these values been realized (or not), and how? We construct answers to these questions by assembling a history of the school from scrapbooks of newspaper articles, memoirs, artwork, and interviews. The basis of the course are the academic and artistic works of The New School’s faculty and students since its establishment. We will also participate in university centenary activities throughout the semester. Learning Objectives ● Learn about archives, how to navigate them and build historical interpretations from sources in them. ● Learn various research methods, including archival investigation and interviews. ● Understand central issues of higher education over the last century and into the future. ● Write papers that convey analytical thinking, a command of readings, original ideas, and accurate acknowledgement of sources.

    884653.indd4653.indd 1 3-1177-0088 4 4:03:30:03:30 P PMM Letter from the Chairs Dear Friends, Welcome to Imagining a More Civil Society: The Summit on the University and the Jewish Community. One year ago a steering committee convened at Hillel’s Kraft Center for Jewish Student Life at Columbia University to begin planning this unique event. We set out not just to catalogue the many positive trends in civil discourse and civic engagement on campus, but to imagine what could be. With the generous support of the Einhorn Family Charitable Trust, this remarkable group of people – leaders of the academy and the Jewish community – developed a program that enables participants to refl ect on who we are and the ideas of others, to discuss and learn from others in an effort to share and integrate our truths, and to act to create greater opportunities for others. As we imagine a more civil society, we will focus deeply on discourse itself and also on activi- ties that foster safe dialogue and productive contributions to society. We will delve into the challenges of creating community, often raising questions without defi nitive solutions. We will demonstrate what we hope to lead on campus: respectful, authentic conversations in which we hold multiple truths simultaneously, listening carefully while articulating our own thoughts and opening ourselves to letting go and learning anew. We will bring back to campus fresh ideas on discourse and civic engagement. We would like to take this opportunity to thank Hillel International Board of Governors Chairman Edgar M.

  • Jewish Subcultures Online: Outreach, Dating, and Marginalized Communities ______
    JEWISH SUBCULTURES ONLINE: OUTREACH, DATING, AND MARGINALIZED COMMUNITIES ____________________________________ A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of California State University, Fullerton ____________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in American Studies ____________________________________ By Rachel Sara Schiff Thesis Committee Approval: Professor Leila Zenderland, Chair Professor Terri Snyder, Department of American Studies Professor Carrie Lane, Department of American Studies Spring, 2016 ABSTRACT This thesis explores how Jewish individuals use and create communities online to enrich their Jewish identity. The Internet provides Jews who do not fit within their brick and mortar communities an outlet that gives them voice, power, and sometimes anonymity. They use these websites to balance their Jewish identities and other personal identities that may or may not fit within their local Jewish community. This research was conducted through analyzing a broad range of websites. The first chapter, the introduction, describes the Jewish American population as a whole as well as the history of the Internet. The second chapter, entitled “The Black Hats of the Internet,” discusses how the Orthodox community has used the Internet to create a modern approach to outreach. It focuses in particular on the extensive web materials created by Chabad and Aish Hatorah, which offer surprisingly modern twists on traditional texts. The third chapter is about Jewish online dating. It uses JDate and other secular websites to analyze how Jewish singles are using the Internet. This chapter also suggests that the use of the Internet may have an impact on reducing interfaith marriage. The fourth chapter examines marginalized communities, focusing on the following: Jewrotica; the Jewish LGBT community including those who are “OLGBT” (Orthodox LGBT); Punk Jews; and feminist Jews.

    Insights into Rosh Hashanah & Yom Kippur by the faculty of Yeshivat Eretz HaTzvi 1 Quote on the cover from Piyut for Yom Kippur by Rabbi Avraham Ibn Ezra. © 2010 Yeshivat Eretz HaTzvi All rights reserved 2 3 "ר ח אל ול תש"ס êúå ë ÀìÇî à ÅNÈpÄú Éåáe . íÉéÈàÀå à ÈøÉåð àeä é Äk . íÉåi Çä ú ÇMËãÀ÷ ó Æ÷Éú äÆpÇúÀðe The "Yomim Noraim" approach us in all their splendor, power, and awe. In the yeshiva, the new year takes on a special meaning as the students and rabbanim prepare not only for the days of awe, but also for the entire learning calendar. The summer has passed and now is time to begin a new cycle of Torah learning. There is no better way to approach learning than hearing the wake up call of the shofar blast in Ellul and greeting the world and Yerushalayim refreshed and energized. íéìùå øé Äî äÈåÉäÀé ø ÇáÀãe ä ÈøÉåú à ÅöÅz ïÉåi ÄvÄî é Äk This summer, in addition to preparing for the arrival of our new talmidim , the faculty pulled its resources to send to all our friends and family divrei Torah from our Beit Midrash. With great pleasure we bring you Torah from Eretz HaTzvi. Eretz HaTzvi has two connotations for us here in the yeshiva – Eretz Yisrael and Yeshivat Eretz HaTzvi and these Torah insights share both meanings. In this modest volume, you will find different styles and approaches to the meaning of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur representing many of the members of the yeshiva faculty.
