For three days this month — April 16, 17 and 18 — representative faculty of the nine schools, all in Westchester, will meet under the auspices of the institutions and the Anti-Defamation League of B’nai B’rith to hear Jewish and Catholic historians and clergymen probe the American Jew and the explicit backgrounds which have molded him. Members of the literature, philosophy, economics, history, political science, sociology, religion and Bible faculties are expected to attend.
