Jewish education is one of the
community's major priorities,
along with dedication to the sur-
vival of Israel and Jews around
the world. He said Jewish educa-

section of the community deter-
mined by ideology.
Rather than educating the elite,
American Jewry must focus its
attention on educating Jews of all
ages and means, Toubin stressed.
In an open society, Jewish edu-
cation must help Jews find in
Jewish tradition and history a
meaning for life today, he said.

Change Urged to Avoid Exams on Saturday

Thesclieduling, of April final
'exams and June commencement
exercises on Saturday has pro-
mpted at least one rabbi to write
the Oakland University provost to
request a- calendar change.
In a letter to Provost Frederick
W. Obear, Rabbi Yitschak M.
Kagan of Cong. Mishkan Israel
asked the Oakland administration
"offer a commitment, in writing,"
flint major school events, includ-
ing finals, will be rescheduled this
year so as not to conflict with
the Sabbath of any major faith
represented in the student body.
Rabbi Kagan also suggested that
future semester scheduling be ar-
ranged so as to avoid such con-
flicts. He concluded:
"I feel sure that the admin-
istration will continue to show the
same consideration for all its stu-
dents and the same egalitarian
principles as it has done in the
past, and I therefore confidently
await your favorable reply."
Rabbi Kagan, who teaches
a course in Judaics at Oak-
land for the Jewish Students'
Association, said he took up the
issue with Obear at the behest
of the association. There are
some 4- to 500 Jewish students
at Oakland, 50 or 60 of them
Sabbath observers, Rabbi Kagan
estimated. He added that many
more students are Sabbath ob-
servers, but would take finals
on Saturday if necessary.

Although there had been sched-
uling conflicts before, Rabbi
Kagan said the Oakland admin-
instration promised this would not
happen again. However, officials
didn't wish to put this pledge in
writing, he said.
Steven Rabinowitz, president of
the Jewish Students Association,
said he had been told the teach-
ers' strike this fall forced a re-

vamping of the schedule to include
Saturday finals. The next term
would begin the day following
finals because no other free days
were available.
However, Rabinowitz learned
Tuesday that there are two free
