"Great work
Gittleman"
IF YOU'VE DONE IT BEFORE, YOU KNOW
WHAT TO LOOK FOR.
That was certainly the case with Ingrid and Michael Day,
who had experience building previous homes prior to
selecting Gittleman Construction to provide roughly
1,800 square feet of addition and renovation space to
their 1960's Bloomfield Township residence.
"We have done a lot of building," Ingrid said. " We've
never had a process go as smoothly as our job with
Gittleman. They said we would be out and back within
six months and they were true to their word. It's now
been about two years, and we've had no problems.
"Gittleman really knew what they were doing and it
showed. I'd recommend them to anyone."

Breaking ground Sept. 16 for the Lester J. Morris Hillel Student Center at MSU
are family members Patrice Phillips, Robert Morris and Jewell Prentis Morris.
A groundbreaking ceremony was held
Sept. 16 for the Lester J. Morris
Hillel Student Center on the campus
of Michigan State University in East
Lansing. The new 10,000-square-foot
facility will be constructed at 402
Linden Street, the site of the former
Hillel building.
The project has been financed
through a capital campaign conduct-
ed under the auspices of the United
Jewish Foundation, the financial arm
of the Jewish Federation of
Metropolitan Detroit.
More than $3 million was raised,
boosted by a significant naming gift
from the Prentis-Morris Family
Support Foundation, a grant from the
Ben N. Teitel Charitable Trust and a
matching grant from the Kresge
Foundation.
Michigan State has more than
2,000 undergraduate students and an
expanded Jewish studies program.
"With the new Hillel building and
the Jewish studies program, we will
be providing our Jewish students at
Michigan State with enriching and
stimulating academic and social pro-
gramming that will reinforce their
pride in being Jewish," said David
Bittker, chair of the MSU Hillel's
fundraising campaign and a former
national chairman of Hillel. The
fund-raising committee members
include Michael Balkin, Barbara
Cook, Andrew Hayman, Cindy
Hughey, Jonathon Koenigsberg,
Arthur Langer, Stephen Linder and
Bryce A. Sandler.
Despite being housed in inadequate
facilities — a 1940s-era former sorori-
ty house — Hillel has provided a wel-
coming place for Jewish students on
MSU's campus. Executive Director
Cindy Hughey said about 1,000 stu-
dents visit Hillel each month for a
range of social and religious activities,
from mixers and lectures to partici-
pating in a choral group and feeding
the homeless at a local shelter.
During the school year, Hillel spon-
sors Reform and Conservative services
and hosts Shabbat dinner for more
than 100 students every Friday night.
Hillel has moved to temporary
offices at 112 Olds Hall on the MSU
campus while its new building is
under construction. The Lester J.
Morris Hillel Student Center is
expected to be ready for occupancy
before the fall 2002 semester.
