The Central European University Summer University in Budapest will offer a course entitled "Out of the Ghetto: Jewish Tradition in Crisis" by Michael Silber from June 30 - July 18, 1997. Dr. Michael Silber is the director of the Hebrew University Rosenfeld Project on the History of the Jews in Hungary and the Habsburg Empire. For this summer's course, there will be scholarships available for students from the region -- Eastern and Central Europe -- and the former Soviet Union which will include travel, accomodations, and tuition. For all others interested in taking the course, there will be a tuition waiver, but accomodations and travel will not be provided by CEU. There will be more information and applications available shortly. This course is part of the larger effort of the CEU to develop a graduate level Jewish Studies program. Specifically, it is geared toward acquainting advanced students in modern history and religion with some of the major trends in Central and Eastern European modern Jewish history. This will also be extensive enough to address the needs of young faculty and/or researchers focused on Jewish issues and education in the region. If you would like more information about the committee on Jewish Studies at CEU or the Summer University course, contact Pearl Gluck at <gluckp@picasso.ceu.hu> or by phone: 361-327-3000, x2088. Please post this information at your universities or anywhere where there would be interest, and publish it in newsletters or information bulletins.
