The Jewish Agency reported today an expansion of Hebrew classes in an Ulpan conducted here by the Herzl Institute and the Agency’s department of education and culture. Some 620 students are expected to enroll in Ulpan courses beginning later this month, as against 500 enrolled in the semester which has just ended. Last year at this time there were 300 students enrolled, the Agency spokesman said. Thirty-two classes have been scheduled for the new term.
