Reform Call
for Sex Equality

LOS ANGELES — In
anticipation that by 1979
one out of three newly or-
dained Reform rabbis in
America will be women,
the Union of American
Hebrew Congregations
has launched an educa-
tional campaign among
its 720 congregations and
1.1 million members in
the United States and
Canada to assure
equality of the sexes in
the placement of rabbis in
pulpit positions and other
jobs.
Matthew H. Ross,
chairman of the UAHC's
Board of Trustees, told
fellow board members
meeting at the Century
Plaza Hotel that "pockets
of resistance still exist in
accepting women in jobs
traditionally held for cen-
turies exclusively by
men."
Ross cited current en-
rollment statistics from
the Movement's semi-
nary, Hebrew Union
College-Jewish Institute
of Religion, showing that
at present 35 out of 215
rabbinic students study-
ing on the four campuses
are women, with 12 out of
45 in this year's freshman
class being women and 25
percent of those applying
to study for the rabbi-
nate.
In addition, the HUC-
JIR's School of Sacred
Music in New York has 17
women out of 44 studying
for the cantorate.

Truth is not bashful.
—Teshubath Tashbetz.
