THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS

Bar-Han Committees Formed
for the Sept. 23 Dinner Event

Preliminary steps were
taken June 19, at a meeting
at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
Bernard Stollman, for the
annual dinner of Detroit
Friends of Bar-Ilan Univer-
sity, to be held Sept. 23 at
Cong. Shaarey Zedek.
Emery Klein, co-
chairman of the event with
Robert Naftaly, who
presided, said the annual
nt will be geared to the
bration of the 25th an-
niversary of Bar-Ilan Uni-
versity headquartered in
Ramat-Gan, Israel.
Plans for the event were
outlined by Naftaly, who
joined with Klein in describ-
- ing the growth of Bar-Ilan
University; Dr. Martin
Hart, who heads the schol-
arship committee; Norman
Pappas, scholarship fund
chairman; Irving Laker,
who will be in charge of an
anniversary journal; and
Henry Lee, direct solicita-
tion co-chairman with
Salek Lessman.
Other chairmen are
Myron Milgrom, schol-
arship; David Morrison,
jubilee journal; and Joseph
Jackier, development
chairman, faculty of law.
Phillip Stollman, chair-
man of the university's
global board of trustees,
also participated in the
meeting.
Dr. Leon Fill, a member
of the Bar-Ban University
board of directors, told of
the university's growth
and its challenging role
in Israel's academic life.
Frieda (Mrs. Max) '
Stollman, founder of the na-
tional Bar-Ilan University
Women's Division, stated
that the women's group as
an associate of the Ameri-
can Friends of Bar-Ilan
University will be re-
activated and will assume
new responsibilities in sup-
port of the university.
Joseph Jackier, who re-
turned from Israel and an
extensive study of Bar-Ilan
University's recent
achievements during a re-
turn visit to the university
told of the many research
projects conducted in the
school -of higher learning
which has 7,500 matricu-
lated students and an addi-
tional 2,500 students in ex-
tension courses.
Jackier told of the assis-
tance given in university
dies and planning for
for citizens and was
ecially thrilled by the re-
- lts attained in the corn-
terized Responsa pro-
gram. He said that the tra-
ditional Jewish Shealot
u-Teshuvot, the questions
and answers on major
Jewish religious and social
problems, are compiled in
500,000 questions in this
computerized collection.
The services it renders pro-
vide information constantly
sought by researchers and
all seeking information on
Jewish ethical and religious
laws.
Jackier said a new
program of services for
the elderly is especially
exciting at this time. Jac-

kier said that a special
program to encourage
and enable any pen-
sioner over 60 to attend
the university classes of
their choice has intro-
duced more than 400
such students to Bar-Ilan
courses during the past
year, following an initial
experimental year in
which more than 250
enrolled.
The Bar-Ilan-Brookdale
project is expected next year
to have more than 500
senior citizens auditing any
of 300 courses, ranging from
psychology to computers to
Bible studies.
The Israel National Adult
Education Association has
awarded its biannual Lapid
Award to the Bar-Ilan-
Brookdale program for
"creating a new model for
integrating senior citizens
into university life and for
encouragement of intergen-
erational dialogue."

Jackier said most partici-
pants in the subsidized pro-
gram take two or three
courses and sit in regular
university classes with the
young undergraduates as
full participating students
in all the give-and-take of
university learning. The
success of the Bar-Ilan ef-
fort has stimulated similar
programs for such "new old"
senior citizens at several
other Israeli universities.

In parallel effort, Jackier
said, the "HaKesher" proj-
ect has been launched by
which regular students at
Bar-Ilan adopt isolated
home-bound older persons
or couples and pay regular
visits to bring social and
cultural contacts in the var-
ious areas which may inter-
est them. In its initial year
25 students enriched the
lives of their "HaKesher"
(Contact) _ "foster
grandparents."
