About
We accomplish this by:
• Teaching students and audiences to be thoughtful, engaged community members who gain exposure to multiple perspectives and participate in open, evidence-based dialogue
• Investigating the full diversity of Jewish experiences and expressions, past and present, using local, global, and comparative perspectives as well as disciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches
• Developing innovative approaches to expand the reach of our research and teaching through public scholarship and new media
