Survey Indicates Progress
for Women in Rabbinate
•
NEW YORK (JTA) "-
The number of women or-
dained as rabbis since such
ordination began a decade
ago will reach 75 in 1983,
according to an annual
Jewish Telegraphic Agency
survey. There are 14 women
currently in their final year
of seminary study, accord-
ing to the survey,
Twelve women were or-y
dained as Reform rabbis
last May and two as Recon-
structionist rabbis last
June. Those 1982 cere-
monies brought to 61 the
total number of women rab-
bis ordained since the first
woman rabbi, Sally
Preisand, was ordained as a
Reform spiritual leader in
1972.
One unique element of
this - academic - year's
enrollment at the
seminaries is that more
women (19) than men- (18)
are studying for the rabbi-
nate at the Reconstruc-
tionist Rabbinical College
in Philadelphia.
A majority of the.
women rabbis hold posts
as assistant rabbis and a
few have been advanced
to associate rabbis, a
that
generalization
newly-
applies to
ordained male rabbis as
well. No woman has
achieved the post of
senior rabbi at a congre-
gation but, in recent
years, a growing number
of women have been
designated "solo rabbis,"
a reference to pulpit posi-
tions in congregations
which are too small to
either need or afford
more than one rabbi.
A few of the women rabbis
have chosen to take posts as
Hillel Foundation rabbis,
while others have chosen
teaching; administrative
and organilational jobs. •
