With the opening of the Fall term in the colleges throughout the country, the B’nai B’rith Hillel Foundation is resuming activities on the campuses of nine large universities.

Branches of the Hillel Foundation, the first of which was established at the University of Illinois ten years ago, are now providing religious, educational, cultural and social centers for Jewish college students at the universities of Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, California, Texas, Alabama, Cornell and Northwestern, as well as Illinois. An ordained rabbi who has had extensive experience working with student groups is in charge of each branch.

The B’nai B’rith established and maintains the Hillel Foundation as a phase of their extensive educational program which also includes the Anti-Defamation League and the Aleph Zadek Aleph clubs for boys between the ages of fourteen and sixteen years.

Dr. Abraham L. Sachar, a graduate of Cambridge University, England, the author of “A History of the Jews,” is the national director of the B’nai B’rith Hillel Foundations and also acting director of the Foundation at the University of Illinois.
