The Jewish Club of Yale began its second year with an address by James Rowland Angell, president of the university, on “The University as a Center of Liberal Thought.”

The club is directed by Irving Coleman former associate professor of English at James Millikin University, who succeeds Dr. Isaac Rabinowitz, now a student under the auspices of the National Research Council.

In addition to lectures open to the entire student body, the club sponsors two discussion groups one devoted to current Jewish problems from a historical and religious point of view, the other given over to vocational guidance. Samuel Board, for many years in charge of the Yale alumni placement bureau in New York City, addressed the latter group on “Vocational Problems and Placement Trends for University Jews.”

Dr. Rabinowitz, in his report of last year’s work, declares the club “has eased the inner tension felt by the would-be renegade” and has solved many individual problems.
