Of nearly 750 prep schools in
the United States, approximate-

Those college preparatory
schools that affirm they are
open to Jewish applicants are
listed in a new "Prep School
Guide for Jewish Youth," re-
leased by the Bnai Brith Voca-

The book's author, Robert
Shosteck, national director of
research for Bnai Brith Voca-

detailed compilation of special
interest to Jewish youngsters
and parents.
