Yeshiva University Opens 69th Year With 3,000 Students NEW YORK, N. Y. — Three thousand young men and women, including the first class to enroll in a Jewish-sponsored medical college, will gather from all cor- ners of the globe this month to usher in the 69th academic year at Yeshiva University, according to Dr. Samuel Belkin, president of America's first accredited university under Jewish auspices. Sessions will be held at five major centers in New York City. The largest number of students in the institution's history will be pursuing courses leading to more than 15 different academic de- grees and diplomas in fields of study ranging from Arabic to zoology. Yeshiva University's new Stern College for Womeh, the nation's first liberal arts college for wom- en under Jewish auspices will opened its second year of classes. The university's graduate di- vision, comprising the school of education and community admin- istration, Harry Fischel School for Higher Jewish Studies and the Bernard Revel School, in- cludes men and women pursuing graduate courses leading to mas- ters and doctorate degrees in education, community administra- tion and Jewish and cognate studies. The programs, designed to train Jewish community admin- istrators for institutions through- out the land have been augment- ed and broadened, and graduates of this unit are already serving with Jewish Community organ- izations in various capacities. Founded in 18,8,6 as the first center in America for the study of Torah and Talmudic Litera- ture, Yeshiva has in these 69 years attained the position of a fully accredited university recog- nized by the highest educational authorities. Yeshiva University's 3,000 stu- dents hail from all parts of the United States and from 25 for- eign lands. No student is denied admission because of lack of funds. More than 85 per cent of the students receive full or par- tial scholarships. • Best Wishes For A Happy New Year QUALITY PLATING CO.

Hillel Leaders Seek Survey on Education STARLIGHT, Pa., (JTA) — A resolution calling for an inten- sive survey of trends in Jewish education in American universi- ties was adapted here at the con- cluding session of a three-day conference of directors of Hillel Foundations at 203 colleges and universities in the United States and Canada. Rabbi Arthur Zuckerman was elected president of the National Association of Hillel Directors. Rabbi Arthur J. Lelyveld, na- tional director of Bnai Brith Hill- el Foundations, said that in the realm of the spiritual, Israel needs the help of American Jew- ry as much as American Jewry needs the help of Israel. "The inroad of secularism and over-concern with techniques which characterize the spiritual aridity in American life are equally present in the new state of Israel," he said. "What we must look- for is an inter-action and cooperation between those forces in both countries which are combatting the advance of medi- ocrity and the loss of distinctive- nes." To close their intensive study of "Judaism for the Modern Age," student members of the Summer Institute have written a Service of Dedication which they presented before returning to the campuses where they are leaders in Hillel activities. The 200 Institute members were chosen' on the basis of leader- ship qualities they have shown in a Bnai Brith Hillel Foundation. Jewish Newspaper in Conn.
