The Birth of a Free Jewish University
The location of the Valley Cities
Jewish Community Center, a
branch of the Jewish Centers As-
sociation of Los Angeles and an
affiliate of JWB, would make it
difficult for the Center's board and
staff to forget about the college
generation even if they wanted to
ignore them. A two-year commu-
nity college located directly across
the street from the center, which
houses the Valley College - Hillel
Foundation, was accustomed to
the sight of college students in its
building.
Early in May 1969, a small group
of Jewish students met with the
center's director and advised him
they were members of a new orga-
nization known as "Jews for a

Radical Society." They asked for
permission to meet in the center
and this was granted to them.
In the initial contact with the
center director, members of the
group described a program, com-
memorating the Warsaw Ghetto
Uprising, which they conducted
on the campus of Valley College.
They also indicated that they
needed to know more about
Judaism since their own sense
of identity as Jews was shaky.
During this conversation the
idea of a Free University of
Jewish Studies occurred to the
center director, but at that time
he did not mention this idea to
the representatives of the new
group.
The 60 participants in this meet-
ing received the idea of the Free
University of Jewish Studies en-
thusiastically. Many of them con-
firmed that they knew nothing
about Judaism, and they had dis-
covered that this was a handicap
for them in their contacts with
other students. They wanted to
know if this university could be
their own rather than the creation
of a group of adults who might be
associated with the Jewish Corn-

munity Center, Hillel or some
other Jewish organization. The
center director suggested that the
Free University be completely in
The ccurses actually began in
the second week of July and con-
tinued for 10 weeks. Each course
had an adequate registration, with
an average enrollment of 15 per
class. The course "Socialist The-
ory and Jewish Thought" had the
greatest enrollment; however, the
attendance in this course grad-
ually dwindled while the attend-
ance in the other three courses
remained consistently high.
A core group is presently plan-
ning to extend the Free University
into another season. They have
agreed to continue with the same
four courses that were begun dur-
ing the summer but they have also
agreed that the courses need to be
structured with a more specific
curriculum and with specific fac-
ulty to handle material with which
the students are familiar.
This seems to be a program idea
that appeals at least to some Jew-
ish students who have detected a
serious lack in their past ex-
periences and who understand that
only a deeper knowledge can lead
to a more positive Jewish identi-
fication. In a larger sense, these
Jewish students may recognize
that they have learned something
from their black brothers and sis-
ters: such learning must be rein-
forced by scholarship and hard
work; it cannot be extended by
wishful thinking.
