The American Committee for Bar-Ilan University announced plans today to build a Gdaliah Bublick Hall of Jewish Studies on the university campus near Ramat Gan, Israel.
The hall will honor the memory of the long-time religious Zionist leader and Yiddish editor. It will house the departments for the study of Torah, Talmud, Israeli history and Jewish philosophy. The three-year-old university now has 600 students.
