"I loved how intimate the classes were, and how rare it was for us to be lectured. Rather, most lecture hours were spent discussing and debating complex Jewish philosophy." As this former student said, this program challenges students to think about complicated issues from different perspectives. Here, students will study Jewish thought, history, language and life, and dive deep into books and other texts from Jewish and non-Jewish sources. Students will also learn about different religions, and typically take at least one year of Hebrew language.
