WASHINGTON, DC – The Brandeis Center announces the appointment of Aviva J. Vogelstein to Staff Attorney. Vogelstein’s appointment marks the Brandeis Center’s continued commitment to fight the resurgent problem of anti-Semitism on American University campuses through legal and public policy approaches.

LDB President Kenneth L. Marcus commented, “Aviva brings great energy, skill and experience to the task of ensuring that Jewish students receive equal protection under the law. She will help the Center to advance the civil and human rights of the Jewish people and, beyond that, to promote justice for all people.”

Vogelstein graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 2010, magna cum laude, with a BA in American History, and from Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law in 2013. She served as Hillel President at Penn, and was active in the Jewish Law Students Association at Cardozo. She gained extensive legal experience through Cardozo’s Bet Tzedek Legal Clinic, Shurat HaDin – Israel Law Center, and working for a solo practitioner. Vogelstein joined the Brandeis Center this past April as a Civil Rights Legal Fellow, and is excited to continue her work in the fight against anti-Semitism in this new position.
