250 Preparatory Schools in U.S. Welcome Jews; 500 Mum on This Subject

March 12, 1958
See Original Daily Bulletin From This Date

Of nearly 750 preparatory schools in the United States, only 250 welcome Jewish students. College preparatory schools that affirm they are open to Jewish applicants are listed in a new “Prep School Guide for Jewish Youth” released here today by the B’nai B’rith Vocational Service.

Robert Shosteck, author of the guide, is national director of research for the B’nai B’rith Vocational Service. He sent questionnaires to all prep schools in the country for a detailed compilation. Of the total, about 250 returned completed forms and gave permission for a listing indicating that students of Jewish faith would be acceptable.

A Season of Big Decisions. From the Knesset campaign to American midterms, Jewish communities are weighing what comes next. Help JTA keep delivering the deeper context.
