SKLAR Editor E e was weary after just a few hours of sleep the night before, but Rabbi Avraham Jacobovitz was animated at the 24th annual ban- quet of his Machon L'Torah, the Jewish Learning Network of Michigan. Rabbi J kvelled in announcing that the JAAM- Maimonides Leadership Training Program will spread from eight campus- Rabbi Jacobovitz es this school year to 29 in 2004- 2005. Oak Park-based Machon spon- sors JAAM: Jewish Awareness AMerica. The 2-year-old program gives Jewish college students an informal opportuni- ty to embrace Judaism at their comfort level. Maimonides fellowships honor leadership ability, Jewish involvement and care for others. Banquet master of ceremonies Robert Weiss characterized Rabbi J as "a person totally dedicated to his people and to exposing all Jews, no matter what their backgrounds, to Jewish learn- ing and values." The Jewish Resource Center in Ann Arbor, under Rabbi Aaron Eisemann, offered the first Maimonides fellowships to University of Michigan students. Michigan State University students will vie for fellowships this fall under Rabbi Einar Meisels in conjunction with Hillel. "There are over 400,000 Jewish stu- dents on college campuses in North America and I say to myself, 'Who val- ues their tremendous potential?"' said Rabbi Jacobovitz at Machon's June 30 banquet in Southfield. "How sad it is that this potential many times gets so lost and distorted with the lack of direc- tion." He added, "I say to myself isn't that sad that many of them perhaps will never realize that they come from such a precious legacy of the wonderful Jewish people who taught the world so much good, so many morals, so many won- ), derful values.
