Israeli Students in Detroit Seeking
Personal Ties With Jewish Community
The Israeli students at Wayne
State University and other area
campuses would like to become
acquainted with fellow Jews in
Detroit, but are having a difficult
time doing so, according to the
head of the Jewish Center's He-
brew department.
Mordechai Tel Tsur told The
Jewish News that the leadership
of the local Israeli Student Organ-
ization has voiced an interest in
creating a dialogue with members
of the Jewish community, with
whom they have had admittedly
little contact.
The Jewish Center Hebrew de-
partment is the unofficial "con-
sulate" for Israeli students here.
There are some 80 of them attend.
ing WSU, and "three or four"
are at the University of Detroit,
according to Tel Tsur.
The problems Israeli students
face here are many. Although they
come to study, they are expected,
at the same time, to perform some
"duties" for their country, present-
ing Israel's point of view when
called for and making an impact
on the local Jewish community.
Many of them work, however, and
fin dit difficult to make social
contacts. There is the additional
language barrier for some stu-
dents.
Tel Tsur recognizes that Is-
raeli students look upon their
American counterparts with
ambivalent feelings. They resent
being ignored, yet, not fully
comprehending the American
Jew, hesitate to put themselves
out to become acquainted.
To remedy the situation, a group
of Israeli students has recom-
mended the creation of an "adop-
tion" program similar to that
existing in Israel, by which a for-
eign student is befriended by an
Israeli family.

This program has long been in
effect in Israel. The new student
at the ulpan is immediately as-
signed to an Israeli family, which
helps him adjust to the strange-
ness of a new land.
"The Israeli students don't want
to become 'yeshiva bokhurs'," Tel
Tsur stressed, pointing out that
families in the East European
shtetl always welcomed the yes-
hiva students into their homes on
the Sabbath.
"What they need is friendship.
They need to feel welcome among
their fellow Jews."
Tel Tsar suggested that any-
one who may be interested in
participating in such an "adop-
tion program" contact him at
the Jewish Center, DI 1.4200.
In addition, he proposed the in-
stitution of a dialogue, a discus-
sion between Israeli students and
American Jews on a formal level,
in which the two sides could
mutually air their feelings about
ties between Israeli and American
Jewry.
WSU Roadrunners
Make It to Tel Aviv
for Paralympics
The International "Paralympic"
Games, sports competition for
wheelchair athletes, began Mon-
day in Tel Aviv with Wayne State
University's five "Roadrunners"
ready to give stiff competition as
part of the 70-member U.S. dele-
gation.
The Roadrunners' chances of
competing in the 27-nation games
looked dim two weeks ago when
they still had $2,000 to raise for
traveling expenses.
