Every year, we bid a sad farewell to wonderful graduating majors — like our remarkable seniors Harry Aaronson, Michelle Bennett, Naomi Farahan, Jordan Schiff and Margo Wagner. And every year, we are excited at the prospect of new majors entering the program; this fall, we’re particularly pleased that eight talented young individuals — many of them supported with generous scholarships — will be joining the JS B.A. class of 2023 from all over the USA, from Arizona, Connecticut, Georgia, Illinois, Nebraska, and Washington. But this year, “continuity and change” has a deeper resonance for the Program than usual. I can’t think of a stronger symbol of continuity than our celebration of Alvin Rosenfeld’s 50 years at IU. To prepare my remarks for the event, generously hosted by Sandra and Bob Borns in the gorgeous Grand Hall at Union Station – Crowne Plaza in Indianapolis, I looked back through the JS archives. I was struck again by what a remarkable achievement it was to invent this world-leading program in south central Indiana. Of course, it wasn’t Alvin’s work alone – many friends, donors, faculty, and staff played a part — and in April, so many of them were on Mark Roseman hand to share in the moment and to witness President Michael McRobbie bestowing on our founding director the President’s Medal for Excellence, IU’s most prestigious award.

  • Foreigner Press Release Version
    For Release on July 10, 2019 Contact: Jason Spaulding, President/ Owner [email protected] Broad Leaf Local Beer to host Foreigner WLAV presents a very special Grand Rapids event when legendary rock band Foreigner members will stop at local brewery to try the local beer, meet the area people and play a short acoustic set. Kentwood, MI - The newly opened Broad Leaf Local Beer will welcome Foreigner band members on Saturday August 10 from 6-9:00 PM for a ticketed event ahead of their sold out Sunday concert at Frederik Meijer Gardens. The evening is billed as a VIB (Very Important Beer) event where attendees can enjoy a beer with band members, pose for photographs, and enjoy a short acoustic song set. Foreigner band members Michael Bluestein and Bruce Watson are big fans of beer, and love to try the local beer in the towns they visit. "Michael and I especially try to get out and see what craft beers are being made in the area," said Watson. "We always ask bartenders, 'Do you have anything local on tap?' That's the first thing we always ask," he added. The two band members are such big beer fans that they have taken the first step into the Cicerone beer program and are both Certified Beer Servers. Foreigner is responsible for some of rock and roll’s most enduring anthems including “Juke Box Hero,” “Feels Like The First Time,” “Urgent,” “Head Games,” “Hot Blooded,” “Cold As Ice,” “Dirty White Boy,” “Waiting For A Girl Like You,” and the worldwide #1 hit, “I Want To Know What Love Is”.

There are our versatile, multifaceted, and committed undergraduates, whose energy and intelligence enable them to master so many different demands alongside each graduates’ Jewish Studies (JS) major, certificate, or minor. The intimate online graduation ceremony we conducted this year, (see small photos on cover page), where a different faculty member talked about each senior, brought out their passion and quality more clearly than ever. There is our tightknit group of high-powered graduate students, extending knowledge in JS from biblical analysis through to the sociology of contemporary Israel. Our graduate conference is an annual reminder of their range and sophistication, and their ability to attract faculty and graduate students from all over the US and beyond to present and debate. There is our internationally renowned and interdisciplinary faculty, newly rejuvenated with three outstanding appointments in the fields of Hebrew Bible, modern antisemitism, and memory studies. Their intense commitment to our students is the glue that holds the program together — as Mark Roseman was again so evident in our graduation ceremony.
