Call The Jewish News 354.6060 MSU Faculty Proposes Jewish Studies Unit MICHELLE COHEN Special to The Jewish News A bout 20 Michigan State University prof- essors attended a preliminary meeting earlier this month to discuss the organization of a Jewish studies program on campus. "Jewish studies programs exist at dozens and dozens of universities across the United States," said English Pro- fessor Barry Gross, who heads the development of the program. "It's an academically respectable field. It doesn't matter as much what the Jewish population is at MSU. Courses in Jewish studies are just as important for non- Jews as for Jews!" MSU now has a thematic program which offers 12 classes in different depart- ments. "The program is dependent on the willingness of other departments allow- ing professors to develop Jewish studies courses," Gross said. "The courses become a part of their regular teaching schedule. "The program's been cobbl- ed together by courses from other departments. It lacks a core. We want to put an order to a Jewish studies program!" A student who completes the thematic program will not have proof of his ac- complishment unless he goes through a series of steps which eventually lead to a formal statement on his transcript. Although Gross and his committee, consisting of 23 faculty members, say it's too early to have an estimated cost for the program, they hope to have their ideas com- pletely developed by the end of the academic year. "We need to continue grow- ing on the goodwill of disciplinary departments," Gross said. "This program needs to meet the educational needs of all students at MSU. An organized Jewish studies program will produce visibili- ty and Jewish presence on campus. That's extremely valuable in reaching all kinds of people!' The committee hopes the new program will include a film series, a lecture series, conferences, more courses and student and faculty exchange programs. In addition, Gross said the program needs money for supplies, sta- tionary, a secretary and a full- time director. "If you're not a department, you lose the chance for that funding (from the universi- ty)," Gross said. "In my own mind, a natural source of funding is the Jewish Welfare Federation. This is a legitimate request since many of our Jewish students come from the Detroit area!" However, the Federation will not fund a developing program, according to Larry Ziffer, planning director of Federation. They will grant funds for existing programs. "Federation wouldn't take money from its own funds to support a whole program," Ziffer said. "But, we'd be will- ing to work with a donor or the university?' Although Gross has not yet gone to the Federation for Michigan State now offers 12 classes in different departments. help, efforts were made two years ago to start a Jewish studies department. Dr. Mordecliai Kreinin, pro- fessor of economics, wanted to establish an endowment fund to support a Jewish studies department. He spent 11/2 years trying to contact supporters. "I just couldn't get to first base," Kreinin said. "Parents worry about their kids' Jewish identity when they come to Michigan State. But, if they're not willing to do anything, they shouldn't be surprised if their children lose their Jewish identity when they come here. "If the Jewish community in Detroit is going to spend zero money at MSU which has 2,500 Jewish students and zero Jewish visibility, they're going to get what they bargained for." Although MSU has a Hillel house, it does not attract a majority of the students. "Students will not normal- ly come to a lecture, unless it's a part of a course and they are receiving credit," Gross said. "We cannot depend on students to be educated through Hillel." Kreinin emphasized that Hillel is located off campus and students need Jewish visibility on campus. "At the University of Michigan and Wayne State University, there are already .
