A seminar in New York for the intensive study of Hebrew especially geared to the needs of American Jewish communal leaders will be offered this summer by the Department of Education and Culture of the American Section of the Jewish Agency for Israel, it was announced today by Dr. Samuel Blumenfield, director of the Department.
The seminar will extend over four weeks during which participants will meet for three hours five days a week. Any person active in Jewish communal work, whether lay leader or professional, is eligible for the course. The seminar will be divided into two groups–one for beginners and one for more advanced students and it is planned to keep each group small enough to allow for intensive and concentrated work.
