A center for Jewish university students will be established in Sao Paulo, Brazil, under the direction of Prof. Jaime Pinsky of the University of Sao Paulo. Prof. Pinsky has been in the United States for the last two months studying the operation of the Hillel student houses at universities. The Sao Paulo student headquarters will be located at the outset in the headquarters of B’nai B’rith, which will sponsor it. B’nai B’rith sponsors the Hillel Foundation movement in the U.S. and other parts of the world.
