Mr. Berenson, who is also a life member of Brandeis University Associates and a board member of the Combined Jewish Appeal of Boston, plans eventually to increase his endowment to $250,000 in support of the University’s Human Relations Center, which is designed to teach students to solve problems in connection with the elimination of all racial and religious prejudices.
