The Future of College: A Jewish Townhall with Alyza Lewin – Tuesday, June 23, 2020

Tikvah is pleased to announce a multi-part “townhall series” on the future of college assessed, analyzed, and debated from a Jewish perspective. We will be joined by some of America’s leading educators and experts—such as Jonathan Haidt, Alyza Lewin, and Ruth Wisse. The series is open to college-bound and college-enrolled students, to parents and grandparents concerned about the education of the rising generation, and to everyone who cares about how to strengthen Jewish liberal education in America in the years ahead.

Watch the Tikvah Townhall presentation here.

This townhall series is generously sponsored by Liz Lange.

How to Avoid the Anti-Zionist Trap

with Alyza Lewin, Brandeis Center
and Tamara Berens, Krauthammer Fellow at Mosaic Magazine
Tuesday, June 23rd, 2020 | 7:30 PM EDT

On college campuses, BDS petitions, Apartheid Weeks, and organized animus against Jews and Zionists abound. How can we understand the anti-Zionist playbook? How should Jewish and Zionist students respond? And what is at stake in the nationwide campus wars over Israel? To explore these issues, we will be joined by two courageous voices: Alyza Lewin, president and general counsel of the Louis D. Brandeis Center for Human Rights Under Law, who has been at the forefront of public debate over illegal discrimination against Jewish students at the hands of anti-Israel activists; and Tamara Berens, a Krauthammer Fellow at Mosaic Magazine, who recently published an important investigative piece on the history of anti-Israel activism at Columbia University.
