Jewish Studies

[Paul Socken]

A number of faculty members wrote to tell me that they heard about the 
Jewish Studies talk but did not receive the announcement so I hope you 
will bear with me as I resend it.

Everyone is cordially invited to attend a talk Tuesday 6 October at 7:30 
pm at St. Jerome's Siegfried Hall.

The talk is by Dr. Stephen Berk of Union College and the topic is "Two 
Old Men and Two Million Jews: Horthy, Antonescu and the Holocaust": 
"Hungary and Romania were German allies and one would have expected the 
total destruction of their Jewish communities. This did not happen. To 
understand why, we explore a story of unexpected heroism and conscience, 
which emerges from this dark era of human history".
