mother is a retired Oak Park High
English teacher. Rosenbaum is a native
of Pontiac, Mich., who grew up in
Texas and Detroit.
A 104-year-old, nondenomination-
al college of Jewish studies, Gratz
includes the Samuel Netzky Division
of Continuing Education, the 1,000-
student Jewish Community High
School and Tuttleman library.
Rosenbaum said Gratz's faculty
plays a key role in Jewish life 'Tor if we
do not successfully train those who
will Jewishly educate the coming gen-
erations, Judaism in America is in
jeopardy. If we achieve that goal, in all
likelihood, vibrant Jewish life is
assured."
Trained as a specialist in the ancient
Near East and biblical studies,
Rosenbaum also has taught and pub-
lished in the fields of rabbinic litera-
ture, Jewish history, Jewish education,
and Jewish literature and religion. The
ordained rabbi reads seven foreign lan-
guages and ancient dialects and speaks
Hebrew and French.
In 12 years at the. University of
Hartford, Rosenbaum created a Judaic
studies program, a Judaic lecture series
and an endowment for the Maurice
Greenberg Center.
In a project co-sponsored by the
University of Hartford and Hebrew
University of Jerusalem, Rosenbaum
has been deputy director of the Ein
Gedi Archaeological Expedition. The
excavation focused on a Byzantine
Jewish village west of Ein Gedi, proba-
bly the home of Essenes, believed by
many scholars to be the authors of the
Dead Sea Scrolls found at Qumran.
Rosenbaum's latest scholarly work,

explore the biennial theme,
"Building a Strong Covenant for the
21st Century." Thal will speak
Saturday, Nov. 7, on "The
Synagogue at the Eve of the
Millennium: Challenging Old
Assumptions, Assuming New
Challenges."
A congregational consultant, Thal
says "the congregational entity is the
essential mainstay of the Reform.

Movement."
