til a cake tester comes out clean.
Cool on a rack for 2 hours. Sprin-
kle with powdered sugar and cut
into 16 bars.

Gender Bias
In Yeshiva

Jerusalem (JTA) — Israel's High
Court of Justice has ordered the
Ministry of Religious Affairs to
take steps to eliminate gender
discrimination in granting
stipends to yeshiva students.
The ruling came in response
to a petition by Nishmat, a
women's studies center in
Jerusalem, which said the min-
istry allots female yeshiva stu-
dents living in dormitories $45
per month, while granting $125
to male yeshiva students.
The petition said male stu-
dents who are married and do
not live in dormitories receive
about $163 monthly, while mar-
ried women students receive just
$40.
Nishmat also pointed out that
women students are funded un-
til the age of 30, while male stu-
dents are eligible to receive a
stipend until the age of 65.
The ministry had argued that
men who defer their army ser-
vice in order to study are pro-
hibited from working, and
therefore need a larger stipend
than women, who are permitted
to work and study. It also said
that because men, and not
women, are obligated by Jewish
law to study Torah, preference
must be given to male students.
Finding the ministry's fund-
ing procedures discriminatory,
the judges ordered it to revise
and present new criteria to the
court within two months.
