‘SISTER SCHOLARS’ 
7-8 PM, FEB. 3
U-M Frankel Center 
for Judaic Studies will 
host a Zoom webinar 
on “Sister Scholars: The 
Emergence of Orthodox 
Girls’ Education in Interwar 
Poland” with Naomi 
Seidman, Frankel Institute 
Fellow. This lecture will 
trace the revolution in the 
name of tradition enact-
ed by Sarah Schenirer, a 
divorced seamstress with 
an eighth-grade education, 
who created a girls’ school 
system, Bais Yaakov, that 
rescued Orthodox Jewish 
society at a moment of 
peril. Info: judaicstudies@
umich.edu or 734-763-
9047.

JEWISH 
MULTILINGUALISM
NOON-2 PM, FEB. 4-5
U-M Frankel Center of 
Judaic studies will pres-
ent a Zoom webinar on 
“Jewish Multilingualism 
in the Midwest: Yiddish 
Translations of Urban 
Experience.” The presence 
of Jews in the big cities 
of the Midwest has been 
studied primarily through 
the lens of urban history, 
focusing on the post-war 
period. To this day, the 

language continues to be 
studied at the University 
of Michigan; it is an ideal 
location for a seminar 
to reconstruct various 
histories of translating 
Detroit, as well as other 
Midwestern sites, both into 
and out of Yiddish. Info: 
judaicstudies@umich.edu 
or 734-763-9047.

review everyone’s cookie 
collections and declare a 
winner. Register by Feb. 
1. The cost of the event is 
$18. Certified kosher cook-
