A groundbreaking took place for a center for Jewish life dedicated to Yitzhak Rabin at the University of California at Los Angeles. The event for the $6 million center, which is expected to house, among other things, a chapel, a computer center and a kosher kitchen, as well as a center for interethnic programs, occurred on the third yahrzeit of the slain prime minister. The building is expected to be completed in the year 2000.
