1983-1984 Rothberg Yearbook

FROM THE PROVOST: 

End-of-the year letters are a strange occasion — a mix o f trying to find a way to sum up a rich, 

complex experience; to say good-bye to a group o f students who gave this school life and 

meaning during their stay; and to link this year with us both to your future and ours. 

Perhaps the best way to do all these things is to thank you all for the work, interest and enthusiasm 

that you invested during this year. It is the highest testimony to what you will take 

away with you, and to the work o f your teachers and staff who helped make it come about. 

From now on, wherever you go or whatever you finally do, you are part o f the Hebrew University 

family. You are part o f a tradition that stretches backwards into time and into a future 

to which, in your own way, you have now contributed. This is probably the best going-away 

gift that we can give: the consciousness o f joining this tradition and having added your own 

unique impression. Again, our thanks, our best wishes for the future, and our hope to see you 

with us again.

י U L i Professor Zev Klein 

The publication o f this Yearbook marks the transformation o f One-Year Program students 

into OYP alumni. As your perspective o f the Hebrew University experience crystallizes and 

matures, you may search for the most appropriate way o f keeping alive the Jerusalem connection. 

This connection will develop different forms, and on different levels, thus each individual will 

in some way preserve his own private Jerusalem. 

I f you wish to maintain a practical link with the University, we invite you to join the School o f 

Overseas Students Alumni Association. Alumni are now setting up regional chapters in various 

parts o f the United States and Canada. Your affiliation with such groups will help strengthen 

the bond between the University and Alumni throughout the world. 

A growing percentage o f ex-OYPers return to Jerusalem for graduate study: the number 9 

awaits your return.

FROM THE DEAN: 

An interesting explanation is given for the inclusion of the spice box in the Havdala service, the 

traditional ceremony that marks the end of the Sabbath and the beginning of the new week. As 

the fragrance of the spice remains even after its removal, so should the beauty and tranquility of 

the Sabbath leave its tracings on the ‘rough and tumble’ of the week to come. 

In a similar manner, it is the wish of the staff of the One Year Program that the richness of spirit 

experienced in Israel inform and inspire you in the years to come.

FROM THE DIRECTOR, 

OFFICE OF STUDENT ACTIVITIES: 

הקשר 

When attempting to view this year in perspective, one soon realizes 

that the experience of studying in Israel is an amalgamation of 

tangible and intangible links that form an holistic chain. Jerusalem 

and its university are symbols of these indivisible links. 

To capture the essence of these individual links and the chain in its 

entirety is, perhaps, an impossible task. Prophets, poets, travellers 

and theologians alike have been consumed by this awesome challenge 

for as long as Jerusalem has existed. This Yearbook is part of that 

heritage. Its editors and contributors have made their attempt to 

grasp the intangible and focus on the tangibles that are the true 

substance of their experience at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. 

This volume represents a tangible connection with this historical 

chain and, in years to come, may serve as an essential tool for forming 

even stronger bonds between you and both the tangibles and intangibles 

that are synonymous with Jerusalem. 

Sometime in the future, each of you will have to grapple with seeking 

l\ a definition for your personal bond to Jerusalem and all it symbolizes. 

I I It is my hope that the tools we have provided you with and the 

\. v opportunities we have offered you will, in some small way, help 

נצח chain. k A ^ y ° u forge your own link in this eternal

“TALK ABOUT A DREAM. 

“Today we will be discussing some of the things that the Jewish people did to counteract the Nazi 

threats, including the Warsaw Ghetto uprising. But first we will hear from a representative from the American 

Friends of the Hebrew University ...” 

While sitting in my Holocaust class at USC, I got my first introduction to the possibilities of studying 

abroad for a year in Israel. During the lecture, my thoughts were intermeshed with the issues concerning the 

Holocaust, and the idea of actually studying for a year in Israel. I left the classroom feeling sad for the Jews 

who got caught in the Holocaust and suffered under the inhumane treatment, yet a lump formed in my throat 

and the thought that I could be in Eretz Israel in six months turned my sadness into a feeling of euphoria. 

I finally got home after driving through 45 minutes of downtown. L.A. traffic. Putting my books down, 

I took out a flyer for an intermural football game which had the telephone number of the Hebrew U. representative 

scribbled on the back. I called her up and 

asked questions regarding the procedures for applying 

to the One Year Program at Hebrew University. 

Within two days I received the application, the 

Hebrew placement test, and all the other information 

concerning the program. Needless to say I still had 

doubts about leaving my family, friends, school, 

home, and car, to spend the year in a country where I 

had not been for five years. I had had a taste of the 

country in 1979, on a six week summer program, and 

I was not so sure if I would ever go back. But the 

application was staring me in the face saying, “Hey 

dude, lets party.” Filled out, and sent in, the application 

just had to pass through the admissions department 

and I would be on my way. The people, 

the culture, the historic ties — these were the things 

being offered to me and I had taken the first step 

towards grabbing them. 

A few weeks later I came home from the beach 

(we got out in May) and there was a letter from the 

American Friends waiting for me. Shit, did I get in? 

Clark meets Sam Rothberg 

Would I be in Jerusalem or East L.A. next year? 

Would I be overlooking the Old City, or the San Fernando Valley? Would I be discussing politics with Israeli 

friends or discussing which guys to give bids to after a rush party? Well, the next thing I knew there was 

shredded paper all over the floor, and I was feeling like Anwar Sadat in ’7 3 .1 didn’t get in. Who ever thought 

anyone was rejected from the One Year program? Goldsmith High, — The One Year Party, — I had heard 

these things. My goal was to go to Israel for the year — the thought of “Academic Standing” never came to 

mind. It was my understanding that all those with an average GPA and a decent essay would get in. But there 

are only so many people that the program can except, and it is the academically qualified person who will get in. 

So I decided that the only way I was going to be able to get to Israel was to show the Admissions people that 

even though my GPA was not “outstanding” (the standards are very high) I still felt I was qualified, and that I 

could offer them just as much as they had to offer me. With the help of the American Friends representative, I 

appealed the decision and thus began my quest for acceptance. 

Well, here I am, in Resnick, writing out my ordeal. All of you know what kind of experience we have 

had here in this most unique country. However, we all do not have to thank people like Sam Rothberg, 

Harold Manson, and the members of the appeal board for this most treasured year. My wish came true. I came 

to Israel for the year, and I could not ask for more. Through all the fears, tears, parties, tardies, the walking, 

the talking, the smoking, the joking, the long lines, and most of all the fun times — we made it. Thank you all 

for making my year the best one of my life; I could not have done it on my own.

TRY TO MAKE IT REAL”

C f f tc a G reat if a rt... 

It’s July 24th —we’re at San Francisco International Airport (which isn’t really in S.F.) 

I say good-bye to my family and get on the plane to N.Y. —excited to get on my connecting 

flight to Israel. The flight to N.Y. went well —I get off the plane and meet a few more OYPers 

destined for Hebrew U. We go to the luggage claim to get our precious possessions —but alas, 

as the last suitcases are taken away — mine are nowhere to be found. Haval. Trying not to 

panic, someone suggests that perhaps they went directly to El Al. A new friend, Eric and I go 

to “check it out.” After almost two hours of waiting — they show up. We run off to the Big 

orientation and get there just in time to hear the overwhelming round of applause for Zev 

Klein. Then we watch attentively as our future classmates file out of the auditorium. Yes, I’m 

off to a good start! 

Time to board El Al flight No. 002 with 200 Americans, all excited to get to Hebrew U. 

Everyone hands the stewardess their tickets. She smiles, tells them to have a “nice flight”. I 

expect the same. She looks at my ticket, says, “Meez Diamond . . . Pleeze stand over there — 

you have a stand-by ticket. . . ” I have a what? ! ? The plane fills up —I offer the man in 

charge a bribe; I cry; I plead. “No, there’s no room for you . ..” 

It’s 10:30 p.m. —the flight has left —I sit on the floor in the El Al terminal, in tears. 

“A nice Israeli boy” (who I’ve been repeatedly warned to stay away from) says he’ll take me 

dancing and drinking. He says I’m welcome to stay at his apartment for the night. RIGHT!?! 

After hours of tribulation — I check into a 5-star hotel near the airport, charge it to my 

travel agent, since he screwed up, and spent a nervous, long night-watching re-runs. 

The next morning I arrive at the Airport about 4 hours early —I’m not taking any chances 

this time. My flight leaves — the whole time I’m afraid 

to leave my seat. We land at Ben-Gurion. . . Now what? ! ? 

I’m happy to see that my luggage enjoyed a nice night 

in the lost and found. I have absolutely no concept of 

this language; no idea where to go. I get in a Sherut and 

tell the driver, “Hebrew University.” He asks which 

campus — hell if I know! I am lucky enough the driver 

has heard of the OYP and takes me to Givat Ram — 

just in time to register. There was one thing I was very 

happy about... with a beginning like that, the year 

could only get better.

why did you coitie to %u.*? 

Was it a mere 10 months ago that I was deciding between packing my Dolby stereo system or my Sony 

Walkman? My designer wardrobe or my basic shlumpy jeans? Boy, time sure flies. But the question isn’t what 

I brought, rather why I decided to come to Israel, the Holy land, in the first place. 

Most people, when asked, would answer with: ‘Well, my family’s always supported Israel . . . I 

was thinking of Aliya, and this is a foot in the door. .. after Ramah Seminar I was going to come back . . . I 

needed a break from the drudgery of Mannhatten . . . four years at the same University — I ’d just die . . . 

for tuition of $1800, how could I go wrong . . . It’s just a stop over — my real aim is Europe. 

Okay, these are all valid responses — but, c’mon, *let’s get real’ and discuss simple facts. When you read 

the propaganda advertisment (oops, too many activism workshops) what was the first thing that caught 

your eye? You probably didn’t bat a eyelash when they described the campus; even the thought of 

the OYP . . . There you were — calculating in your mind . .. “Hmmm, lets say 50% of them are 

male (female). They’re all Jewish .. . and I ’m almost 20 — could be it.” I hate to be cynical and 

downplay what OYP has to offer, academically, that is, but would that alone compel students 

a 

to drop everything and run? 

f 

Just as an addendum, I would have to say, whereas 600 new faces to meet and 

f 

600 people to interact with and become friends with, is probably incentive enough f 

to take a break from old routines. We could have chosen to do it at various 

f 

universities throughout Europe, yet we chose Israel. I’m not in any position 

f 

to evaluate each student’s reason for being here, but all of the above cited 

f 

reasons brought this year’s OYPers here. It’s been a great year which 

f 

was enhanced by being in Jerusalem, Israel.

Tribulations 

Ulpan . . . it seems so long ago now, yet I can still 

clearly remember the pain and agony of learning 

this crazy language of Hebrew. Okay, so it wasn’t 

“agony,” but it wasn’t that much fun either! 

Imagine sitting in your Aleph 4 class, the teacher 

asks you your name, בעב רי ת,‏ and you can’t even 

answer! Well, that’s how it was for me. I’d never 

seen or heard this language (outside my occasional 

visits to shul). I finally memorized questions and 

phrases such as: שיי and

ULPAN HEBREW 

When I was asked to write about אולפן the first thing that came to mind was 

. Yes, the joke is an old one, but with my lack of mmmm I was sure that הכלב 

was what the place was called. 

Then I recalled my first day of אולפן Waking early with a cold shower, I ran to 

catch a 7:30 bus (from Givat Ram to Har Hatsofim) that never showed up. I arrived at 

Har Hatsofim and stared at the white stone buildings that all looked the same. I remember 

though each and every building trying to find the class 7 א-‏ in the blue section. 

: what an accomplishment. After eight years of Hebrew school I had arrived in א-‏‎7‎ 

Israel with a knowledge of Ivrit that was nil. I could read and write and understood 

I knew I ‏,עברית teacher began conducting class in אולפן . When my ל א , and שלום 

was in trouble. Was I the only one who was totally confused or did the stupor on everyone’s 

face indicate that they too had no idea as to what the מורה was talking about? 

The half hour break between class eased my tension because I realized that noone 

else understood anything either. 

By the end of my first five hour session I understood one thing only. “Buy the blue 

book.” Like all good students, that’s what I did. Help!! Did they really expect me to 

understand all this? 

Days and weeks went by and then it came time to try at what I had learned. Sitting 

on a bus I leaned over and asked a handsome young soldier “ ? ה שעה ’ He mumbled 

some answer in Ivrit. Unfortunately, I didn’t understand it. We hadn’t learned numbers. 

There was also the time at Machaneh Yehudah, when I asked ? 

answered in English, “Fifty shekels, sweetie.” Insult of insults. 

Ten months later and after many more hours of Ivrit classes, I am able to get by on 

the streets. I even skipped Kita B. But what’s more important is that I’ve made the effort 

to learn the language and because of this I ’ve enabled myself to begin to enter into Israeli 

society.

seems to have something to do with the BIG MOVE. We are going, or so they tell us, from 

Givat Ram to Mt. Scopus, and it is being presented to us as a kind of mini-aliyah. One notes 

that in all our official memos it is invariably capitalized, not just the first letter, but all of them, 

as if it were a massive, unatterable phenomenon. “Not since the Exodus,” I thought to myself, 

“has there been such a tremendous hullaballoo about a simple change of location. 

Then the true allegorical meaning of the excitement struck me: the fellow running this 

show is, you guessed it, Moshe. I grant you, Margolin does not closely resemble Charleton Heston 

in The Ten Commandments (or even The Planet o f the Apes), but the allusion is thought 

provoking. 

Perhaps the K.B.H. (Kadosh Eiaruch-Hu) has heard our cries from bondage in the fleshpots 

of Shikunei ha-Elef. We can only await with the baited breath our departure to the Promised 

Campus, a campus flowing with milk and 

honey, or at least one that spares us a 

half-hour bus ride." 

I assume that our departure is being 

delayed because the hearts of the housing 

department have been hardened. Somehow 

I doubt that such tough bureaucrats 

as they will be phased by transforming 

a rod into a snake, or by a quick 

case of leprosy. Such tricks have been 

attempted by far better magicians than 

the OSA staff, and to no effect. Card 

tricks probably wouldn’t impress them 

either, and the water is already such that 

changing it to blood can only improve 

the cleanliness of my wash. Any frogs 

sent would only fry on the hot sidewalks 

(not kosher anyway), and they’re probably 

used to both gnats and flies by now. 

Forget about sending them cattle disease 

(who keeps a cow in a Jerusalem apartment?), 

and a plague of boils would be 

THE TRUNKS HAVE ARRIVED 

nothing alongside the mosquito bites 

they already have. Hail is nothing compared 

to what hits this place in winter, and locusts would be a disaster for the kibbutzniki, 

city dwellers can endure them with a can or two of bug spray and the loss of a few rubber 

plants. Israelis would probably only use locusts as a substitute for S.VJ*. Darkness is hardly a 

threat, they have power failures here already. Moshe, you might just clench it by causing all 

their firstborn sons to become dardasim, but I doubt it. 

Assuming, o Moshe, that you find a way to persuade them to let us go, we’ll get out of this 

place. Even so, can you picture such a trip? Moshe Margolin lifts up his mighty rod and parts the 

traffic on Yaffo road to lead out what must be the entire junior class of Brandeis University. 

Then, with Givat Ram housing bureaucracy in hot pursuit, he closes the traffic in on them, and 

they are crushed by an oncoming 4-aleph. Think twice, Moshe, do you really want to lead the 

OYP-ers around downtown Jerusalem for forty years? Our madrichim have enough trouble 

keeping track of us for three hours. But perhpas it will all be worth it in the end, Moshe; you’ll 

be a star, it might make a good movie, and think of what you could make on the novelization 

rights.

THE BIG MOVE — When we first heard that statement, we all thought they were finally 

going to move the Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. Who ever thought a “Big Move” 

would affect some 600 Overseas students. More importantly, who ever wanted it to affect us? 

Life was just moving along peacefully when all of a sudden, they tell us we ,re moving. Moving 

from the place we’d grown to love. True, Givat Ram had its “faults” ; one phone for 600 

students, an inevitable 25 minute tiyul from the bus stop to Shikuneh, “Who” concert crowds 

at 7:30 pushing to get floor space on Egged buses to Scopus, and the joy of sharing beautiful 

Shabbat meals with our myriad feline neighbors. But hey, come on guys, there were good 

times .. . weren’t there? Look, we had The 

Club Integral. Remember those long hours of 

serious and intense partying, quaffing large 

quantities of warm Maccabe beers. Where 

else could you have met such unique and 

intriguing natives? Suddenly it was coming 

to an end. Packing us up like a JNF tour 

group and shipping us off to Har Hatzofim. 

Har Hatzofim, the treasure at the end of the 

rainbow. Or was it perhaps Pandoras box? 

Well, that’s a completely different story 

altogether. That’s a completely different 

story. Anyway, preparations were made, 

meetings were held and speeches were given, 

all to make the students more aware of what 

was going to happen. This insured a smooth 

running BIG MOVE. Not! They told us to 

be up at 7:00 a.m. and we’d be in our new 

homes by 8:30. Well, we remember the 

way it really went. Up at 7:00 and in our 

Waiting for the Big Move 

new homes by 5:00 p.m. the next day. It 

seemed like the entire day was spent either standing in lines waiting for nothing or moving 

luggage from one spot to another in and around the Resnick dorms. But eventually it all 

worked out and as I sit here writing this article for the Yearbook, (I figured after coercing 

numerous people to submit articles, I had better submit one myself). I must admit that it was 

worthwhile moving up to Har Hatzophim. Now does anyone want to join me for a Bud in Club 

15???

EGYPTIAN RAMBLINGS : 

Welcome to the world of hashish, backshish and “change 

money” : Egypt. This is a travel piece on the land of the Nile that 

is void of the absurdity and trash the L e t’s Go guide and Arthur 

Frommer proudly, for some reason, present. The bathroom stops 

and toothbrush scenes have been left out here. Included is the 

remarkable time we had for eight days. 

At the unquestionably unhealthy hour of 6 a.m, Juliedidichrisdavidterrypeterjayjulieyourstrulyheidiamylesliennshericlarkkeithdebbiejonathonhilleljohnjeffsharonlarrymarkterrryalicialisadianadebbiejuliefreddyfreddysshadowabilizdebbiejohnjanicedaricecarolyn 

boarded the bus. We left Goldsmith, forty of us in all, at 

Jewish Standard Time: 7 a.m. In a sleepful stupor we drifted 

through the Negev, past Yad Mordechai to Gaza. Impoverished 

Gaza was a preview of Egypt to come. The drive through this 

longtime hotbed of terrorism revealed a Third World atmosphere 

with decrepit tenements and unpaved streets. It is not so hard to understand 

why Sadat did not want Gaza Back. 

At the !?order at Rafia, passport control ran smoothly, even with Israel and 

Egypt’s typical bureaucratic problems. Evidently, Mohamed I, our Egyptian 

tour agent greased the right palms. The results of Camp David are evident at 

the border: on both sides sat the “Peace Snack Bar.” Part of the formalities 

included changing buses at the border. Both the bus and the driver from 

Jerusalem needed help. Suspensions for both would be in order. But the bus 

from Rafia to Cairo was of fine manufacture (even though it was a Renault) 

including air conditioning, reclining seats, and an audio system that did justice 

to Simon and Garfunkel. 

Once over the Suez Canal, a graphic Egypt appeared: women laboring in 

the Nile-fed fields, Mobil gas stations and Mercedes dump trucks running 

around looking busy. On the road to Cairo the bus stopped for us to stretch 

our legs at “The Rest 6 October.” A more appropriate name would have been 

“The Rest Third Army.” 

In Cairo’s traffic, pedestrians and dusty haze we made our way to the 

hotel. Dinner at the dated Continental Savoy was a mediocre meal indignantly 

served by dated Egyptian waiters. Afterwards, we quickly left to check out 

the casino and take buggy rides along the Nile. 

Come lunchtime, after a day at the Egyptian National Museum, we were 

introduced to the Egyptian counterpart to Bud and Maccabee: Stella — 

refreshment in a large unlabled brown bottle. With our three official and 

four self-appointed guides, the day’s touring continued at the Coptic Church 

and the Ben Ezra Synagogue. Naturally, the Synagogue, the oldest in Cairo, was most fascinating. The group had the 

opportunity to take part in an afternoon service in Cairo’s newest Synagogue. It was moving to see the “Minyan” praying 

— in an Arab country. 

On the first-class train to Luxor in the morning the blinds opened to views of Bedouin-like tents lining the rails and 

the sun rising over the Nile. Once outside the train station in Luxor, we were surrounded by carriage drivers offering their 

services which included banking: “Change money.” After breaking through the mob, we got organized and then ferried 

across to the west bank of the Nile — the land of the early postmortem 

homes of the Pharaohs. 

In ancient times, only the special workers who constructed the 

burial chambers were allowed on the west bank. The Valley of 

the Kings was captivating with its vast subterranean tombs, covered 

with heiroglyphs which tell a myriad of stories. Only King Tut’s 

tomb was not discovered by what our tour guide called “grave 

rubbers.” Archeologists did not uncover Tut’s place, still in fine 

condition, until 1928. Although the boy king had only nine years 

to construct his burial chamber (most Pharaohs had 50—60 years), 

it was still a magnificant site. 

The afternoon in Luxor was spent taking carriage and bicyle 

rides, sailing on the Nile in feluccas (scant Egyptian sailboats) or 

walking in the open markets.

AN OYP TRAVEL GUIDE 

Luxor’s temples, Karnak and Luxor, were expansive and tremendous 

covering large areas with massive structures, statues and 

columns. Seeing these immense temples left one wondering if 

they had been constructed with Jewish labor and how much the 

Second Temple Herod built dwarfed these Egyptian models. 

That night, via carriage, we went to the sound and light show 

at the Karnak Temple. Our collective advice to visitors of Luxor 

is to skip the show: It was four pounds (about $4.00) for boredom 

in five different English accents. 

At some dreadfully early hour we headed towards Aswan 

with two temple stops along the way. The first spot was in Edfu. 

In Aswan, we boarded feluccas to sail to the grand botanical 

garden. Our captain, who was by now Mohamed V, had engaged 

us in some funky chant. Joe Jackson must have been in Egypt when he wrote 

“Five Guys Named Mo.” He meant Mohamed who made us “cats jump up 

and down.” Later, Mohamed V dug into his pocket and pulled out his coin 

collection. We added some “sheks” and “asimonim” which he happily accepted. 

Later we sailed to the Nubian village. The Nubians’ were once Sudanese. 

They have practiced Islam since the Crusades and their reverence and dialect 

of Arabic are unique. When Muslims make a pilgrimage to Mecca, they depict 

the journey on the walls of their homes. The Nubians religiosity was seen by 

the number of the scenes painted on the walls throughout the village. They 

find happiness and satisfaction in their religion and work, despite their 

poverty. After spending tea time with the Nubians, a throng of playfulNubian 

children escorted us back to the feluccas. As the sun set behind the village, 

Mohamed V guided us back across the river. 

The next day was spent seeing the old British dam and the Soviet-constructed 

Aswan High Dam. Initially, the Soviets built the dam’s electric generators. 

Now American engineers are coming in to repair or replace the failing Soviet 

devices. 

An overnight trip brought us back to Cairo for the highlights of the trip: 

THE Giza Pyramid and the Sphynx. This awesome pyramid, rising over one 

football field in the air and having less than one-half inch difference between 

the base stones of each of the four corners, was for only one person. A claustrophobic, 

dimly lit walkway with a formidable incline, led to the burial chamber 

in the dead center. f- 

The rest of the day was spent wandering through the Cairo market. Khan 

el-Khalili !was filled with Egypt’s best “chachky” salesman and their wares: 

Jewelry, antiques, “essence” of perfumes, spice, stuffed animals, clothes of 

the land and the like. 

On the final day at 6:30 a.m., on the way out of Cairo, we stopped to see Sadat’s grave and the reviewing stand 

across the street where he was assassinated. Once in Sinai, as a reminder to whom it now belongs, Egyptian F-16 jets 

raced over the bus. Just like returning home after every journey, there was much excitement when we crossed the 

border into Israel and later into Jerusalem. 

To be a Jewish group travelling in Egypt was an interesting experience. Many Egyptians instinctively associated 

Jews as only being Israeli. They did not understand that we were Americans or Canadians. Even being viewed as 

Israelis, they were still very cordial and hospitable. There was a feeling | of sincerity in the markets and walkways as 

we were greeted with “shaloms” and “salaams.” Surprisingly, 

the guys who wore (“kippot” received acceptance, and to a certain 

extent, respect. This warmth and kindness is questionable though: 

How can it be that, over a period of five years, this culture, this 

nation has seemingly turned to the point of friendship —even with 

the cooled relations between Egypt and Israel? 

We had a wonderful time, even taking into account scheduling 

and promised no “traif” meal problems with the tour guides. 

Some of the best jokes were borne out of the tour guides screwups, 

in our successful efforts to laugh them off. The eight days 

proved to be interesting and worthwhile. In short, it was kicks.

KIBBUTZ:The CKpcrience of (1 

lifetime! 

When one thinks about Israel, invariably one of the first thoughts which pops into his head is “Kibbutz” 

Certainly that’s how it has always been for me despite the fact that I had not been t6 Israel before my attendance 

for the second semester. I’d say the associations went something like this: Israel — Jerusalem, holy 

places, Jews, Israelis, Kibbutzim, and so forth. The first four were so high on my list; that is pretty understandable, 

but for kibbutz to be number five? But of course, there were reasons for that, too. Like everyone else, I 

had heard of the unique, fantastic and great Kibbutz experiences of many people for quite a few years. Close 

friends had told me time and time again of their escapades, and I could tell that they had only cherishable 

memories. Such constant and overwhelming exposure to Kibbutz lovers convinced me that spending sometime 

on a Kibbutz would be a must. 

I signed up in the OSA to spend two and a half weeks at a religious Kibbutz called Maale Gilboa near 

Beit Shean for the Passover vacation. I wish I had a dollar (no sheks, please) for every person who said to me 

“You’ll have the greatest time of your life,” or “I wish I was ‏!.׳going ” I usually responded with, “Yeh, I’m sure 

it will be fun.” More than a few people were surprised at my constrained optimism, but understand that it was 

coming from someone who had not previously gone through THE experience. 

Fifteen other overseas students joined me in my voluntary enlistment for THE experience. 

The most critical element in anyone’s visit to a Kibbutz is working. We were assigned to different jobs 

everyday (well most of us, anyway) on a rotation basis. Gedash was one of the favorites. Four to six people 

would stand on a potatoe combine being pulled by a tractor and sort out the rocks and dirt — quite a pleasant 

job unless you do not like sweating, shivering (depending on the weather), getting your hands and face muddy, 

or constantly working at a fast pace. Probably the most dreaded job wa$ ‘gan yarek,’which consited of pulling 

up poisonous weeds. “Tor Erev’ in the kitchen wasn’t bad, unless of course you despise dishpan hands. ‘Hadar 

Ochel’ — cleaning and washing the floor and tables and other assorted dining room duties — was tolerable. 

There were a few lucky ones who worked in the ‘Gan Yeladim’ which proved not to be too strenuous (How 

many minutes did you work with the kids today?) And how could I forget the most infamous job of all? 

Working in the ‘Lul’ with the turkey was “Ezey Kef,” right Andrew? At least when four of the five guys 

(there were eleven girls) worked in the ‘Lul’ one day we found a good way to pass the time (“This guy walks 

up to a bartender ...”). 

Aside from the work, other things added to the experience. Each volunteer was given a family to get to 

know. Generally we visited our families on Shabbat afternoon. The three Shabatot and the Yamim Tovim of 

Passover gave us the chance to meet our families and to appreciate how coveted non-working days are. The 

volunteers’ second seder was a lot of fun, too, and gave us our own time to be together and celebrate (with 

Chana from Cleveland, of course, when are we 

going to visit her?) 

During our entire stay we were also able 

to chat and to mingle with Kibbutzniks and 

volunteers. The ample free time allowed us to 

get to know and better understand the lifestyle 

and philosophy of the Kibbutz and its 

inhabitants. 

Of course, while we were there things 

were not always terrific. We all complained 

of fatigue, the poor weather, our grueling jobs 

and other assorted bellyaches. Yet afterwards, 

I know that the majority of us returned with a 

very positive attitude and a feeling of fulfillment. 

I have said, and will continue to say about 

Kibbutz, “Yes, I had a great time,” without 

hesitation or doubt. Maybe it won’t be said with 

as much excitement as someone else might say 

it, but it will certainly be from the heart. And 

coming from me, such a response to my “experience” 

really is a rave review.

To Russia.. .with Love! 

In early April of this year, Larry Massen and I traveled to the Soviet Union for a seven-day tour 

of Leningrad and Moscow. My main purpose for the visit was not to see the historic sights (which 

were impressive) or to see how the Russians live under the Soviet system (which was eye-opening). My 

reason for the visit was to bring food, clothing, Hebrew books, and support to Jewish refuseniks. My 

experiences were inspiring and heartbreaking, educating and frustrating. 

There was no problem with obtaining visas, and having an Israeli stamp in our passports was not a 

factor. Since Israel and the Soviet Union do not share diplomatic relations, our necessary paperwork 

was done in only ten days’ time from Copenhagen. 

We had received in Jerusalem the addresses of refuseniks to contact. In Leningrad, we spent two 

and a half hours with the Kogan family. Itzhak Kogan lives with his wife and two children in an 

apartment — small as it is — dominated by hallways. We arrived there on a Saturday evening, just 

before Havdalah. The service was short and sweet. Bittersweet. 

The youngest, a girl, played with her toys in innocence and ignorance, just what the Soviet state 

wants. She will learn that she is different, though. Anti-Semitism is not good, but sometimes it can 

make you strong. 

The grandmother arrived. She spoke only Russian and Yiddish. Almost the entire time we were 

there she sat without a word. Sat and waited. Mrs. Kogan looked tired. Her young face had wrinkles 

that shouldn’t have been there. Itzhak also looked tired. A button had come unraveled on his left 

short sleeve; it dangled from the thread. 

The Kogans have applied for a visa five or six times now. They have lost count. “I do not feel 

like a refusenik,” said Itzhak. “I am somebody sent here to do a mission.” He does not despair, does 

not feel sorry for himself, for his family. I do. I am angry and I am sorry. I am frustrated. 

Itzhak used my pen to write down the addresses of another refusenik family. It is an Italian pen 

that cost me 24 dollars. That’s about how much he makes every five or six days. 

An old Yiddishe woman greeted us at the door of the Moscow Great Synagogue one morning. I 

said I was from America, and she smiled at me. She didn’t drop her gaze. Six or seven people gathered 

around us, staring, like we were an exhibit at the zoo. 

That afternoon we met Iliya Essas at a subway station, and he walked us to his apartment. Ulya 

was first refused 12 years ago. He, too, has lost count of the times he has applied for an exit visa. 

“Time does not matter to me,” he said. “The important thing is believing it will happeneventually. 

I do not despair. I am hopeful.” He last applied for a visa six months before and had not received any 

word. “Just because they have not answered does not mean they have said ‘no.’ It just means that 

they have not answered yet.” 

Iliya Essas teaches Talmud in a land that prohibits it. He started lessons seven years ago with 

three students and now has 200. His students also become teachers when they are educated sufficiently. 

The system branches out. They are now on their “fourth generation” of students, he explained, and 

his face broke into a smile. 

The phone rang four times during our ten minutes at the apartment. Students. In my bag were 

twoboxesofPassovermatzo,wine,soupmix,candy,coffee,andclothing. It will be distributed throughout 

the community. Vicki Bernstein sent with us a pair of jeans, God love her. Those can be sold on the 

street for 90 rubles, about 100 dollars — money to help ease the cost of living. And leaving. 

I went to the Soviet Union with intentions of bringing renewed hope to the refuseniks. Instead, 

they renewed my faith. Ironically, their plight is inspiring: the Jewish refuseniks are the most optimistic, 

idealistic people I have met. Itzhak Kogan and Ulya Essas know best of all the power to choose 

between optimism and pessimism. A pessimist does not hope for much. Those optimists hold their 

heads high — and risk their necks — to smell freedom. 

Freedom is a simple issue: either you have it or you do not. The subject of Soviet Jewry is also 

a human rights issue. Don’t stop attending rallies for Soviet Jewry. Don’t stop sending your letters to 

congressmen and refuseniks. Visit the Soviet Union. Increase the pressure on the Kremlin. We have 

the ability to take this simple issue and make it into a very, very powerful one. What we do and what 

we say does matter.

i& ftec tio n s 

We all came here in July 

With a wide range of expectations 

The general conclusion has been formed 

This year has been a sensation. 

Some came from Canada 

Others from all over the States 

Each with his own manner and style 

Has helped make this year so great. 

Classes ranging from Alef to Vav 

We had begun our Summer Ulpan 

Spending many long hours in a classroom 

Along with ‘Tiyulim’, parties, and fun. 

Then, we moved to Mt. Scopus 

Which made life a little less rough 

Classes were now walking distance 

No need to rise early and rush for the bus. 

Then we had one month ‘Chofesh’ 

To do with as we pleased 

Some opted to go Chuz laaretz 

Others to go to New York and freeze. 

Some were volunteers on Kibbutz 

Some went across Israel touring 

Still some did “marva” 

And some stayed in Jerusalem exploring. 

Then class registration was a pleasure 

The hard thing was just choosing courses 

No such thing as computer breakdowns 

Just relying on past OYP sources. 

A wide range of classes offered 

Mankowitz, Hecht, Gofni, Mendes — Flores 

History of the Middle East, Prayer, Religion 

Anti-Semitism and much more. 

Before the holidays we’d all be together 

As Baruch Levine would throw a party 

Free menorahs, music and food 

To get the festivity started. 

The OYP ’ers never stayed put 

And on any given Shabbat 

You can find them scattered throughout the country 

From Kiryat Sh’mona down to Eilat. 

So what was our One Year Program? 

What is Goldsmith and Bar Aton? 

Was it putting flowers in Coke bottles? 

Was it waiting for hours for a phone? 

Was it cooking Shabbat dinner together? 

Was it Meah She’arim’s hot lachmaneot? 

Was it walking around the Old City? 

Was it awaiting a new shekel note? 

It was a bit of all the above 

And lots of other things and more 

The end has not yet come 

So we still don’t know what is in store. 

Some have chosen to stay in Israel 

Some will go back home 

Some are entering yeshivot 

Others are going to Eulope to roam 

Some are going to the army 

But as for all the rest 

No matter what you do 

Well be thinking of you 

And we wish you all the best!

FOOTBALL 

by Howard Cossell 

It’s defense which allowed only one touchdown 

all season, found itself baffled by the 

rushing of halfback Allan Mietla, the quick grabs 

out of the backfield by Elliot Dater and the long 

yardage catches of Lee Prohotsky. However, 

star quarterback Gary Flaxman closed the gap 

by steady dumps to receivers Loren Persiko, 

Bruce Goldfarb, Dave Frieden, and 6‘8 ” Mike 

Kantor. Finally, with 3 seconds left and goal-togo, 

Flaxner pumped the ball into the hands of 

Eric Katzman for the TD and the championship. 

A fitting end for an exciting season and a day 

to go down in football history. 

" F ritz” runs fo r a n o th er TD fo r Team C 

Welcome sports fans to the Hebrew University 

football league which wound up its exciting 

season at Givat Hatachmoshet statium. The four 

team league, organized by Kenny Greenman, 

played a gruelling, six game schedule of twohand 

touch, full contact, football. In regular 

season play, Teams A and B, captained by Ken 

Greenman and Lou Gordon, tied for third place. 

Meanwhile, Lee Prohofsky’s Team C battled 

Dave Frieden’s Team D for the championship in 

the Hebrew U. Bowl. The heavily favored Team 

D trailed throughout the game to Team C. 

T h e C ham pionship Celebration 

CREW TEA M 

This year’s intercollegiate athletic schedule 

produced nothing like the Hebrew University 

One Year Program’s crew team — the Gold Stars. 

The crew team sculled its way through the 

rowing season undefeated to take sole possession 

of the Israeli Intercollegiate Crew Association 

(IICCA) crown. Though the crew team was one 

of the less-known teams on campus this year, the 

Gold Stars held up the long-standing tradition 

of Hebrew University rowing triumph. Said 

captain Lee Prohofsky of his team’s performance, 

Practicing their R ow ing F orm 

S ta r’s Strategy Session 

ן “I think the long hours we spent planning 

strategy really paid off.” Coxswain David 

Tapper was instrumental as a unifying and 

effort-inspiring force. Anchorman Ophir Dzaldov 

added, “Our intensive weight training built 

our stamina for the homestretches and made 

us virtually unchallenged.” The strength of 

rowers Isaac Ben-Haim, Paul Zaddoff, Joel 

Newman, and David Frieden rounded off the 

team. Commented Frieden, “I just hope next 

year’s crew will be able to repeat our performance.

BASKETBALL 

by Oscar Madison 

This year the Goldsmith basketball 

team, known as the “Rothberg 

Rockets” began their season with 

two decisive victories. In their first 

game, the Rockets, organized by 

coach Shlomi Akiba and David 

Frieden, overcame a 10-point deficit 

at halftime to defeat Neve Schechter 

66-59. Heading the Rockets on the 

court were 6’3” center. Larry Masser 

and 5*10” guzrd, Isaac Ben Hamn, 

out of Madrid. Also contributing, 

with excellent teamwork, were 

Benjy Ackerman and David Frieden. 

Twin Towers Massen and Ackerman spell. Double-Trouble 

In their second game, the Rockets faced the tough U.S. Marines. 

Playing without Massen and Ackerman, the Rockets were still able 

to crush the Marines 81-32. The finesse of Captain David Frieden 

proved devastating as he racked up 25 points. Also contributing with 

excellent all-round play were Joel Newman, and Fritz. 

At the time this book went to press, the Rockets were preparing 

for their game with Tel Aviv University. Also playing for the Rockets 

are Lee Prohofsky, Brett Rawitz, Ophir Dzaldov, Randy Kesseler, 

Dan Schoenfeld and Elliot Schiff.

Studying at the Hebrew University this year posed a huge 

obstacle for the avid sports fan. Could one cope with a threeday 

postponment of scores? The result — a victory in flying 

colors. Not only was there a continuous supply of updated 

material constantly being sent, but as major events took place 

the line-ups at the phones were endless. The past year (1983— 

84) has produced new rivalries, new champions and new 

losers in North American sports. Here is just a short list of 

some of the major events of the year: 

The biggest upset of the year occurred as the students were 

working strenuously at the summer Ulpan. For the first time 

in over a century the United States was dethroned of the 

America’s Cup. This international sailing event focused on the 

controversial Australian keel, and following several protests its 

legality was no longer in doubt. In the final race Australia H 

with its superior crew and boat came out victorious over the 

cocky American crew aboard the Liberty. 

As the summer turned to fall, record breaking crowds 

turned out to see the baseball pennant races. The season produced 

many surprises such as; The Toronto Blue Jays in first 

place for over a month, Baltimore and Chicago running away 

with these divisions, and no one seemed to want the National 

East. New stars including, Moseby, Strawberry, Boggs, Kittle 

and Boddictier replaced retiring fallstars Tike Yaz and Bench. 

In an anti-climatic World Series, under rookie 

manager Joe Altebelli, the Baltimore Orioles 

won the 1983 World Championship. 

In November a large contingent of long 

suffering Toronto football fans gathered in 

downtown Jerusalem to witness Canada’s version 

of the Superbowl. Following a 32-year drought 

the Toronto Argonauts defeated the British 

Columbia Lions in a nail-biting game that was 

decided in the final minutes. The Argos came 

out on top by a score of 19—18. 

Attention quickly focused on the Jerusalem 

Plaza in mid-January for THE Superbowl itself. 

Expecting a gruelling match between the two 

most dominant teams during the N.F.L. season, 

Hebrew University students turned out in full 

force to partake in the festivities at the hotel. 

Unfortunately there was not enough booze to 

Sam R othberg: H onorary Team Captain 

T h e Sports Year (as seen by a M ichigan stu d ent) 

overcome the disappointment of this one sided crushing defeat of the Washington Redskins at the hands of the Los 

Angeles Raiders. What can the capital be proud of now? 

In hockey, a dull season has led into exciting playoffs climaxing in a repeat of the 1982 finals between the four 

time Stanley Cup championship New York Islanders and the Wayne Cretzky Oilers. At this point the series is still up 

for grabs. 

Presently, the Boston Celtics and the Los Angeles Lakers appear to be headed into what should be a super final 

N.B.A. championship series. Who’s going to win? Take your pick. 

(This editor knows that the Lakers will come out victorious!) 

With the influx of North American sport fans making aliya to Israel, there is no question that more Israelis will 

focus in on North American sports. With Major League sports always seeking to expand their horizons, ifre may one 

one day find North American sports in the Promised Land.

“There are fifty ways to leave your 

lover” (P. Simon). Lover here refers to 

Israel and all the new experiences we were 

exposed to: Ulpan, dormitories, trips, 

Yihje beseder, savlanut, regah, different 

people, Egypt, Sinai, Greece, Israeli boy 

or girl friend, and more and more. 

I hope you’ll leave with warm feelings 

and good memories and a better understanding 

of the place called Israel and 

what it means to you. 

Those who have conflicts, I hope will 

solve them, those who want to come 

back, you are always welcome, those 

who want to finish school and start a 

career, all my best wishes. To all of you 

and to those whom I got to know 

better than others, thank you forpainting 

my life with many beautiful colors.

SHALOM! 

With what or whom or where do I 

begin to recall it all in this little space. 

Which of the many memories, discussions, 

experiences, should I evoke. 

For many of your questions, much of 

your curiosity, involvement and excitement 

have given me so much and has 

contributed to my own experience this 

year. 

What I want to remember is encompassed 

in Yearbook 1984. What I have tried to 

communicate has found expression 

during your entire Jerusalem experience 

. . . sometimes in passionate 

argument and often in silence in a continuous 

process between you and the 

land of Israel. Now at the end of the year 

it is my hope 

Good luck. 

Rina 

שתשמרו על הקשר 

This might be the end of your stay in 

Israel, but I hope it’s just the beginning 

of your adventure in your search for 

Jewish identity and awareness. When 

you’re back home, remember the experiences 

you enjoyed here, whether it 

be fabulous Friday night, Bet Midrash or 

just going to the Kotel, and see how you 

can continue these experiences wherever 

you are. Don’t forget, that while you can 

get up and come to Israel and study 

wherever you so wish, there are those 

around the world, in USSR and other 

places, who can’t. Do what you can for 

them. 

It’s been really terrific being with you 

all and I hope that many of you find 

your way back to Israel. (Hey it’s the 

only place to be really Jewish) and 

that you don’t forget to contact me.

And Even More 

To all of you, 

Thanks for a wonderful year and 

for letting me know you. 

My address: Sarah Tsin 

14 Yad Labanim Road 

Haifa 32165 

Sarah 

Meiron has been after me for weeks 

to write this letter, so finally, I forced 

myself to do it. It’s not that I’m afraid 

but after all, Meiron is bigger than me. 

But, I promised myself, I won’t 

write the usual stuff such as: “It has 

been a great year,” “It has been a 

privilege working with you” and so on. 

Not that it hasn’t, but it’s just too boring 

to read. 

Anyway, I do hope you enjoyed 

Israel and the three things it is blessed 

with: great land, super inflation and 

madrichim. Not that I’m having an egotrip, 

but somebody has to do it. Anyway, 

when you come back, we’ll be here, 

Israel will be here and so will probably 

inflation. 

So ‘bon voyage’ back home and 

even a better one back here.

"A View from the Other Side” 

“All I want to do is check the Herald Tribune to see the playoff results ...” 

“What do you mean the post office is closed? My girlfriend’s birthday was yesterday, so sending this telegram 

now is a matter of life or death.” 

“Do you have any birthday cards for ex-boyfriends?” 

“Why doesn’t Elite make a dietetic Egozi bar??” 

All these and more can be heard on any given day at the Post Office/Card Shop/Newspaper Stand/Candy 

Store below the forum. I should know — I work there! 

It all started way back in August ’83 just shortly after the store was moved from its former spot next to 

Moadon 12% to more spacious accommodations in the University itself. I decided to spend my break from 

Ulpan buying stamps and candy. (Eating and writing letters was a more constructive activity than learning 

Hebrew!) When I entered the store, I was met by a barrage of people requesting everything fromasimonim 

to Vogue magazine. You could hardly move in the place, let alone hear yourself think above the clamour 

of impatient buyers. Ruth and Dave Keusch were working feverishly to handle all requests as quickly as 

possible. Then — I had a brainstorm! I remembered how Dean Singer had told us at orientation to throw 

ourselves into Israeli society in order to get a real “Israel experience” What a great way to integrate myself 

into this strange, new culture,’ I thought. So I figured why not give it a shot and ask. I caught Dave’s attention 

between stamps and telegrams and told him that I was available to work if he needed help. I thought he was 

crazy when, with fifty impatient customers in the store, he looked up at me and said, “No, we don’t need 

any help right now — why don’t you check back after vacation?” 

Now, after working for the Keusch’s for six months, IVe realized that Dave and Ruth have their business 

down to a science. Until you stand behind the counter, you really can’t expect to understand them. 

You might be certain that every time you come into the store Dave is in a bad mood. I know Dave as 

my boss, who lets me take off to run errands or enjoy an extended weekend out of town. You might think 

Ruth has the patience of a New Yorker (which means a lack thereof!) I know Ruth as my adopted mother 

who does my laundry and invites me over for dinner. What our customers don’t realize is that in any given 

day we service over one thousand people. That may not seem like very many for a nine-hour workday, but 

it’s ndt spread evenly into one hundred or so per hour. It’s a few hundred during the fifteen minute break 

between classes every two hours. Given that kind of rush, combined with the Israeli characteristic of not 

knowing what a line is, it is easy to see how the pressure to serve everyone as quickly as possible can make 

for a pressurized atmosphere. You can also add to that, the North American arrogance that turns a mildmannered 

OYP student into a blood-thirsty animal just because their monthly ration of M&M’s from home has 

yet to arrive. Sometimes it can be hazardous to your health to be behind the counter. Geez! 

So now that you understand what we have to go through every day and now that you are going to make it 

a point to smile and request rather than demand, let me set a few things straight for the record: 

— The post office is closed every day from 1 p.m. until 3 p.m. (Tuesdays it’s closed all afternoon). 

— Your daily mail at the dorms does NOT come through us before you receive it. 

— “Express” means faster than regular mail which doesn’t say much, but that’s all we know! 

— We haven’t sold Snicker bars for almost a year. 

— We don’t know why Mars Candy Company will not export M&M’s to Israel. 

Now that we’ve got all that straightened out, you should have a different view of the store. Now when 

Mathew sends back your package after it sat in the store for two months or when Dave tells you that you can’t 

check the sports in the Herald Tribune unless you buy it or when Ruth reminds you that there’s a table outside 

where you can put your stamps on your letter or Tzvi figures out your bill faster than a computer or when 

Paula flashes you a warm smile and speaks in flawless Hebrew and English, you will understand the extraneous 

situation and be able to sympathize before you get insulted. 

I’ve never met a more giving and caring family than the Keusch’s. As a pseudo family member, I can attest 

to the warmth in their hearts. After having the Passover Seder with them I will now say, “Next year at the 

Keusch’s.” I’m glad I can say “I WORK THERE.”

Ave. . . . — 

I’m still in Idelson. 

It’s 8:05 a.m. on Monday, May 21, 1984 and I’m lying on my bare mattress staring up at the naked eye 

of the sun as it beats down on my lifeless body. 

Why doesn’t my ‘Treese’ close? 

Who invented those damn things anyway? 

Why did I ever come to this out-of-order country? 

In five minutes I have to catch the bus in order to get to Gafni only moderately late . . . I catch the bus 

just in time. For the first time in two months I make it to class to get my seat in the last row before Gafni 

starts explaining why the foreign policy of Julian the Apostate had a major influence on agriculture in Palestine. 

Ninety fascinating minutes later Gafni announces that he will be on Meelooeem for the next three weeks . . . 

I turn over and open my eyes. 

My room-mate’s alarm clock says 10:10 a.m. 

I ’ve slept through class . . . again. 

Stumble into the shower. 

I’m as Zionistic as the next guy but after losing all sensation of touch as my extremities are frozen 

numb, watching the moss grow on the ceiling of the shower, my fortress of idealism starts to crumble. My 

reverie is brutally cut short by my thoughtful suitemate barging into the unlockable bathroom, reminding 

me of my 10:30 Hebrew Class . . . 

My teacher marks me “Meuchar.” 

How will I convince my college advisor back in Columbia that I was “Meucharred” down to a grade of 

B-? How did I ever get placed in level “Hay?” All my friends are also in level “Hay.” We used the same dictionary 

for the “takome” placement exam. 

On my way up to Ol’ Blue Eyes I experience agonizing inner conflict over whether I should go for “Oaf 

Seeny” instead of good old dependable Shnitzel. Being in a wild, unpredictable mood — I decide on the 

confetti hot dogs. Towards the end of my repast I suddenly remember I haven’t dorte my reading for Chassidism 

. . . How will I understand the lecture? Frantically I scribble down every word. Can’t keep up with the 

new terms. 

Why are we sitting in a circle? How will I pass the final? 

Luckily I am sitting in the back of the class so I have time to think up a paper topic as he goes around 

the room. Sure hope Encyclopedia Judaica has something interesting to say on why the Chassidic movement 

had a major influence on agriculture in Palestine. After class, as I munch contentedly on my cheese toast in 

Yossi’s “Madhouse” (?) I contemplate . . . 

Why aren’t all girls French? Why doesn’t this cheese toast have any tomato sauce? How will I ever get 

through this semester? . a /

‘Campus Shalom” 

Little seems to be known about one small organization within the One Year Program 

called Campus Shalom. This is partly due to the fact that it is directed toward a minority 

in the student population, the Christians. Jim Cantelon and Wayne Hilsden were both 

pastors in Canada. Two years ago Jim and about a year later Wayne came to Israel with 

their families to live, to be a part of Israeli society, and continue their ministries together 

here. Jim also became involved with the Christian radio station in Southern Lebanon called 

“Voice of Hope.” Both pastors saw the need for a fellowship among Christian One Year 

Program students who wanted to study the Bible within the context of their faith, and 

desired to have a fellowship or family amongst themselves while away from home. It all 

began with the first meetings held under a tree at Givat Ram, close to Shikune Ha Elef 

during those hot days of Ulpan last summer. Now Campus Shalom officially has a room 

in the Goldsmith Building. If someone is walking down the hall on a Tuesday night he 

might hear a little singing behind one of the doors where the students are meeting. Next 

year we hope that more people will know that Campus Shalom exists and that whoever 

wishes to participate may feel welcome to do so.

research internship 

Since the start of second semester many of my 

free hours have been spent within the confines of either 

the Truman Institute or the Institute of Soviet and 

East European Studies, exploring the nature of the 

Soviet-PLO relationship as a Research Intern under the 

guidance of Professor Galia Golan. 

The chance to work under the tutelage of such 

a world reknown scholar has proven to be an invaluable 

experience. It has allowed me to explore a relationship 

which is such an intricate part of the Arab-Israeli conflict 

in a relaxed atmosphere. The internships have 

allowed, not only myself, but several other students to 

work alongside scholars in their fields of interest. 

In the past five months, I have become intimately 

acquainted with many of the “personalities” who shape 

the policy and direction taken in this special relationship. 

As the months went on, I learned to differentiate 

between “common knowledge” and “important 

changes in trends” within the PLO-Soviet relationship 

and Soviet-Arab world as a whole. My weekly meetings 

with Professor Golan have been the highlight of the 

internship. Her own personal insights into the Soviet- 

PLO relationship has aided me immensely in the search 

for a better understanding of the complex issues before 

me. 

As the year draws to a close, some of my fondest 

memories will have been of my semester spent as a 

Research Intern. In my case, it has proven to be the 

first step towards a possible career in the area of 

Middle East Research and one of the highlights of my 

year in Israel.

chug aliyah 

Chug Aliyah was formed at the beginning of the year by a group of students* interested in creating a 

serious, yet informal forum to explore inner feelings related to Aliyah. One of the group’s strengths was the 

varied orientations. While some students had already decided that they want to live in Israel, others were 

only starting to consider this possibility. The net result was a healthy exchange of ideas and opinions from 

different perspectives in a supportive, relaxed atmosphere. In our weekly meetings we emphasized both 

ideological issues and practical “tachlis” involved in moving to Israel. 

In regards to the ideology of Aliyah, we dealt with such issues as Jewish identity and our conceptions of 

the ideal State of Israel at the Center for Jewish Zionist Education in Abu Tor. Speakers such as the head of 

the Student Authority of the Ministry of Immigrant Absorbtion and a professor at the Hebrew University (a 

former new immigrant) shared with us their feelings concerning the process of Aliyah. With the help of Israeli 

students we examined such issues as the role of religion and the nature of Arab-Jewish relations in the State 

of Israel. A psychologist led us in discussing the effect of the decision to live in Israel on our relations with 

family and friends, and we talked about Israel-Diaspora relations (among other things) with officers-in-training 

at Har Gilo. 

We also tried to expose ourselves to as much practical information as possible relating to Aliyah. We 

were introduced to the complex notion of new immigrant “rights” by a counselor from the Association of 

Americans and Canadians in Israel (AACI). We were provided with helpful guidance concerning the army by a 

representative of the IDF, as well as the possibility of continuing our education in Israel by a representative 

of the Student Authority. A trip to Talpiot Mizrach allowed us to see for ourselves what an absorbtion center 

in Israel is all about. Furthermore, we greatly enjoyed listening to a panel of new olim who shared personal 

insights and provided us with excellent advice regarding Aliyah. 

All in all.we had a very productive (as well as extremely enjoyable) year in Israel. Each member of the 

group grappled with the vital issue of Aliyah throughout the year. We hope and believe that our experience 

in Chug Aliyah, and our year in Israel in general, will provide us with a firm basis on which to consider the 

possibility of living in Israel in the future.

I have been in a bus crash in Turkey, gotten 

food poisoning in Kenya, and have searched for 

friends after terrorist attacks in Jerusalem. It’s 

been ten months of “studying abroad” in Israel. 

•I haven’t taken the academics awfully seriously, 

but life has been rather intense at times. 

Two memories: . . . just dozing off, the bus 

whipping around curves through the dark 

Turkish countryside. Suddenly the brakes slam 

on, and my stomach is floating above my head 

as the bus veers sharply off the road, toppling 

on its side as it careens down an embankment. 

A few shrieks as the bus slides down, but I experience 

a peaceful, drifting sensation; somewhere 

in the back of my mind I wonder how 

badly I’m going to be hurt. The bus stops. As 

in a dream I pick myself up, standing on the 

broken window. I ’m okay. Total silence within 

the bus as I walk out... 

. . . “You better go see your friend Ron. He’s pretty shaken up by what happened.” Israeli 

alarm system screeching, I find out three Arab terrorists had run out of a clothing store onto 

Jerusalem’s busiest intersection throwing hand grenades and firing automatic weapons. Ron witnessed 

everything from a store directly above the intersection. “Oh man, blood and bodies everywhere, 

people screaming ...” Afterwards, Ron said, an eerie sight was Arab workers hosing the 

blood off the street while people once again strolled through the streets. Ron saw an old lady 

tottering down the street a short while later, muttering over and over to herself, “What a life we 

have here, what a life we have here.” 

The past eight months are a jumbled blur racing through my brain. If I reach back, searching, 

this image and then that will shoot across my mind, setting off a smile, a grimace, tears. I feel 

jangled, frazzled. Sometimes I just want to curl up in bed and hide from the world. My perspective 

is out the window. 

Some memories sparkle. I have found pure beauty; untouched serenity where I could laze in the 

sunshire, dreaming, scribbling thoughts, 60aking in the sun, or simply allowing my mind to go satisfyingly 

blank. 

I think what has hit me the strongest is life’s fragility. Bombs explode, and buses crash — not 

just when other people are on them. After the bus crash we were herded onto a passing bus headed 

for Istanbul. The bus was crowded; people let the obviously hurt sit. I stood in the aisle, minus 

glasses, coat, passport, and money, frantically sucking on a cigarette to soothe my nerves. I began 

shaking, then laughing and crying at the same time. The thought of being alive had never given me 

such joy, but I was sad, having glimpsed my own mortality. 

. . . The ride from Nairobi to Mombasa on the coast of Kenya was jolting and dusty. When we 

stopped at a roadside stand we gulped some Cokes and ate some “french fried bread.” We pulled• 

into Mombasa, a sleazy port city and immediately left for Malindi, an hour up the coast. Sleeping 

haphazardly that night in our hut with just enough room for two beds I began to feel queasy. 

Waves of nausea swept over me and I stumbled outside, losing almost all my liquid when I got 

violently sick. The second time I threw up, a security guard was peering suspiciously at me just 

before I threw up. Jambo (hello in Swahili) I said, then vomited. In the morning we staggered in 

the unrelenting heat and humidity over to an ex- 

Central Turkey — the bus crash occurred on a similar road pensive resort and asked them to call a doctor. Food 

poisoning, he said, giving us pills and telling us to sip 

fluids all day. We spent a chunk of our money on 

the resort that night, feebly lying in our beds next 

to a fan for twelve hours. We took a train back to 

Nairobi the next night. The twelve hour ride took 

eighteen hours when a freight train derailed ahead 

of u s . . . 

. . . By eleven p.m. on a weekday downtown Jerusalem 

is quiet. But on pedestrian Ben-Yehuda street 

bop and bounce a bunch of high school kids from 

Argentina. They are singing, dancing, laughing. One 

kid has a guitar, another a flute. They sit in the 

middle of the street in a circle, singing songs in 

Hebrew, Spanish and English. They are joined by 

grinning soldiers who dance with girls in the center 

of the circle. Roses are thrown and stuck in gun 

nozzles while the group ecstastically sings “Let The 

Sun Shine In” and “Peace From Israel.”

memory 

Monuments filled 

with eyes and voices 

of soldiers' mothers 

pain and revenge 

of brothers, 

Worship a gun — 

I cannot, nor khaki... 

black boots beat 

in combat's cattlefield — 

But there is (here a silence) 

which no longer questions 

yet lingers stronger than death or 

blood in the battlefield, 

and oh lord in my heart 

never ends the dirge which began 

long before was raised 

stone, earth, and hell 

to say still, we kill. 

N. Navetsky 


a questioning world 

Sometimes the world is like a serious vacuum 

cleaner that sucks all of its decided 

waste products into a system. 

Other times, life is decided by few 

for the prospects of many 

Other times, a smile can replace an idea, 

and be prayed to 

When there is love, a warm and embracing fire, 

the chances for its death are as 

high as the mountains it bums from 

Everyone's smile and everyone's word 

weigh heavy in a vat of loneliness 

When a woman is by herself, 

and the words of others blow 

in like slicing winds to her 

room, all she wants 

is a warm beer, and 

distant voices, and a 

sort of reunion 

with her lonesome ideas. 

But lonesome ideas 

like crying coyotes 

are like deserted ditches 

found in the pit of question: 

When is there a rock with moss that 

I can grab and lie on, in 

the sun where the prospects of 

dehydration won't outweigh 

my bum?

IDF STUDY TOUR 

During the February vacation, the One Year Program, in 

connection with the IDF spokesmen, conducted a study tour 

covering various aspects of the IDF. The tour took three days and 

had well over forty students as participants. The program included 

visiting Army and Navy bases throughout the country, and provided 

a unique opportunity to learn more about the IDF. 

The first day of touring began early with a trip to Ashdod. 

One of the three Israeli Naval bases in Israel. Ashdod Port holds 

submarines and larger surface missile boats. The tour met up with 

the Naval guide and was given a lecture about the navy and its 

service to the IDF. During every phase of the IDF tour, students 

were allowed to ask questions — the Navy base was no exception. 

The first day was concluded on Har Gilo at the Military College. 

Students met with IDF officers in small groups and were given 

a chance to address such topics as Aliya, Army serice and politics. 

Tel-Nof, a paratrooper and Air Force base located near Rehovot, was the first base visited on the tour,s 

second day. At Tel-Nof, students were shown the steps in becoming an Israeli paratrooper and lectured on the 

history of the troops. Lunch was eaten at the Tel-Nof base. After which the tour proceeded to the landing site 

of free-style parachuters from the IDF. The men and women that were jumping could also be seen at the start 

of the Maccabbee games and on Independence Day. The students then continued on to Beit Ha-lochem in 

North Tel Aviv. The one aspect of war and its results that few tourists see. Beit Ha-lochem is a private organization 

which helps disabled veterans return to a normal life style. The organization tries to instill a sense of 

competition into the disabled with games such as basketball, swimming, target shooting, ping-pong and many 

more. Yet the organization does more than just rehabilitate the wounded, for it involves the whole family. 

This highly successful and unique approach to disabled veterans, was one of the highlights of the tour. The 

second day finished with a free night in Tel Aviv. 

The final day of touring began at the Wingate Institute. Known throughout the world, Wingate is a Sports 

School for not just citizens but the military also. The students were given a tour of the facilities including 

gymnasiums, rifle ranges and obstacle courses. Soldiers are taught the key to good health and fitness and 

expected to spread the word throughout the IDF. Students were also given a chance to run the obstacle course. 

After Wingate, the IDF tour headed north to Carmiel to facilities used for improving the fckills of foot-soldiers 

after basic training. The soldiers are taught topography, use of weapons and ways to conduct oneself as a 

soldier. The tour headed back to Jerusalem after the visit to Carmiel. 

The IDF tour was a highly successful and interesting experience. The tour did not just stress sightseeing, 

but enabled students to ask questions to the regular soldiers and commanders. The tour was a unique way of 

learning about the IDF, its past, present and future.

Are you a good hiker? 

Are you a good eater? 

If you answered affirmatively to both of these questions, you 

should have gone on OSA’s pre-Pesach Negev Tiyul. The first requirement 

may seem obvious, as we did some exciting hiking through- 

Nahal Zin for most of a day, learning about plants and limestone/chalk 

formulations from our Madrich Roni; but why the second requirement? 

The answer is clear to those who travelled with us on our 

minibus, advernturously piloted by the ever-effervescent Amir. The 

Beersheva Youth Hostel, our base for the duration of the Tiyul, 

catered to us with some of the most sumptuous cuisine to be found 

in ‘the land of milk and honey.’ While savagely attacking our shnitzel 

and eggplant salad, talking was all but forbidden; the only sounds 

were those of the ecstatic proprietors of sated stomachs. Also not 

״Montana‏‘‏ to be forgotten were our frequent ice cream fuel-ups at the 

eatery. 

Our Tiyul began with a visit to the Joe Alon Museum of Bedouin 

Life. Our tour, exposing us to the lifestyle and customs of the Negev 

Bedouins, was highlighted by drinking coffee and tea served with 

fresh “marva” in a cozy Bedouin tent. After visiting the Negev Monument 

to the fallen soldiers of the Independence War, we talked with 

Joshua Cohen, former Lechi Commander (one of the 12 founders of 

Sde Boker), a friend of the late David Ben-Gurion, who told us at 

Kibbutz Sde Boker about Ben-Gurion’s dream to settle the Negev 

Desert. We finished our first day by visiting the ruins of Tel Avdat, 

a city in which the Nabateans, a Christian people of the 3rd—4th 

centuries C.E., succeeded in tilling the desert sand and cultivating 

crops. The following day, we visited the Hebrew University experimental 

farm, which is testing and exploring over and above the 

Nabatean achievements, new methods of farming. We concluded 

the day with our invigorating hike of Nahal Zin. 

On the last day of our Tiyul, we encountered a twenty-five foot 

long par of Zizit’ made of rope, draped across the entryway of 

located in Yeruham. Following a slide-show הנגב 

presentation of the Negev and, short hike through Ein Yorkeam, 

we discussed the spiritual importance of the ‘Kesher’ between 

the Midbar and the Jewish nation. 

Upon leaving Yeruham, our minibus came to an abrupt halt. 

Amir heroically dashed out into the wilderness, only to return 

gloriously, delivering to safety a weary puppy, later to be called . . . 

Yeruham. Yeruham had no problems settling in with the group, as 

he demonstrated his “good eater” requirement as he quite naturally 

W ׳ j 

devoured leftover portions of our delectable 

lunch. We later became hungry as we 

hiked once again through Nahal Zin, 

guided enthusiastically by our madrich 

Meiron to our dessert, Ein Zin, a spring 

surrounded by a sprawling oasis of semitropical 

trees. 

We came away from our Tiyul with 

many fond memories and valuable learning. 

The latter is summed up well by a 

story told to us by a former friend of Ben 

Gurion at Sde Boker. It describes the 

flourishing development of the Negev. 

When he asked a group of children where 

in the desert they lived, they responded 

by saying that they live in Beersheva, not 

in the desert.

Israelis and other enlightened people will tell you that to really understand this country, one must first get 

to know her rocks and thorns, cliffs, fields and flowers. This we did for an intense four days with 47 One-Year- 

Programmer’s approximately 35 overseas Haifa students, amazing madrichim and 3 morei derech from Chevrah 

l’Haganat Hateva. From the Mediterranean to the Kinneret, we crawled, climbed, skidded, waded and shlepped 

and yes, learned to appreciate Eretz Yisrael. 

Looking back, 5.a.m. was a perfectly reasonable meeting time for all of us in front of Goldsmith on Friday 

morning. (If only we had known how far Thursday night’s sleep was going to have to take us). Wake-up was 5 a.m. 

every morning thereafter, to the energetic “Boker tov kulum” of the madrichim (what were they on?) and the 

soothing, natural sound of the electric generators. Aside from making coffee to relieve the headaches it caused, 

that sacreligious contraption provided us with scrambled eggs, soup, shnitzel, mashed potatoes, and rice mush 

with orange rind. Being on the shnitzel-making assembly line Saturday night was, in fact, one of the highlights 

of my trip! 

At Tel Achziv where the hike began, we were divided up into three groups, each with its own moreh derech. 

Our madrich, Arnon, was no doubt jungle-born and bred, and bore an incredible resemblance to some of the 

bearded figures I used to see in my Sunday School Bible coloring book. He would often stop to tell us legends or 

to animatedly describe how certain species of bees made love to certain flowers, thinking they were other bees, 

and other such intriguing information. 

Saturday night in front of the campfire, a few madrichim and students presented a short Yom Hazikaron 

service comprised of readings and songs. Afterwards, during a fairly heavy rap session between us and the madrichim, 

we heard about their wartime experiences, their views towards us as visiting, overseas students and we also 

discussed our feelings towards Israel and how this year has changed them. 

When the second two-minute siren sounded on Sunday morning, we were on our way down Mt. Meron.• 

Bracing ourselves, against the incline, we stood quietly along with the rest of the country, taking in all the magnificence 

below us that could never have been Israel’s without the sacrifice of those 19-, 20-, 21- years olds whom 

we were honoring at that very moment. With or without such philosophizing, Yom Hazikaron will next year contain 

for many of us that memory of Mt. Meron. 

Sunday’s trek was by far the longest, but probably the most fun, Arnon leading us through a water route 

of Nachal Amud. That night, after 12 hours and 22 miles of hiking, a crowded bus-load of us limped into Tiberias 

where we bought flags and hoppers and made the best of the city’s comatose Yom Haatzmaut celebration. When 

we got back to the campsite we were cheerfully warned not to put our sleeping bags too near the field just in 

case any scorpions were looking for a warm place to sleep. 

Sleeping outside with 90 people was itself an adventure, with everybody running to claim the most desirable 

locations as soon as we found our campsite. Our sleeping bags became dew-soaked the minute we unrolled them, 

and before we could even get comfy, of 

course, we had to find some semi-private 

(ha!) spot to relieve ourselves. Peeing 

alongside one’s friend in the prickly underbrush 

is definitely an awesome experience 

and I suspect, adds years to the relationship. 

Early Monday afternoon, after almost 

50 miles on very little sleep, blistered feet, 

and much too much vanilla halvah, we were 

driven the remaining 20 minutes of the way 

to the shores of the Kinneret. There we 

swam, surfed, enjoyed a shmorgasbord of 

left-overs and the fully equipped restrooms, 

and on the smushed, four-hour bus ride 

home, emptied our canteens all over each 

other 

Ṡitting here, two weeks later, massaging 

my slowly-recovering toes, I still don’t 

understand how my commandos could have 

let me down like this!

CELEBRATE 

7 May 1984 2:00 a.m. 

Today was an emotional rollercoaster, a day 

in which my thoughts really wandered, but in a 

deep and intense way. “Remembrance Day — 

Yom Hazikaron” started Saturday Night and 

today there were ceremonies throughout the 

country. Each community remembers their 

members in their own unique way. There was 

a major ceremony at Mt. Herzl, the site of the 

military cemetary. 

I went to the cemetary with two friends, 

both of whom wanted to visit people who 

were killed in Lebanon. The cemetary was an 

incredible site. The whole city of Jerusalem 

was there, each going to see father, son, 

daughter or friend killed in one of the five 

wars. It was a day in which the entire country 

was “one.” Something which is unheard of in 

the States and something which is hard to 

believe, given, that Israel is in the midst of 

political turmoil and complete economic 

chaos. 

Yom Hazikaron ended at sundown and 

Yom Ha־Atzmaut began. It’s a psychological 

wonder how these two completely different 

days occur back to back and fit so well 

together. Last night and-today Israel remembered 

its dead whereas tonight the country 

celebrates its living and the very fact that it 

exists after 36 years of constant struggle. If 

there actually is something like dying for a 

worthwhile cause then Yom HaAtzmaut is the 

epitomy of that feat. 

Tonight the country was once again 

united, yet this time the mood was festive. At 

one center of town there was literally one 

massive party. The entire city was out, young 

and old alike. All the streets were blocked off 

and the people were out having some “good 

clean fun.” “Boppers” seemed to be the main 

form of entertainment. Everyone was blowing 

horns, “bopping” and wishing each other 

happy holidays. There were loud speakers and 

Israeli flags lining the streets. Israeli folk music 

filled the air and people were literally “dancin’ 

in the streets.” 

For the first time since I had been here 

I was actually considering Aliyah. Never in my 

life have I seen a people actually an entire 

nation having so much fun and be so close to 

one another. Never before have I seen a people 

celebrate their very existence. What an experience. 

The feelings I had tonight cannot 

adequately be described on paper. They have 

to be seen and felt. HAPPY BIRTHDAY 

ISRAEL. THANK G-D YOU’RE STILL 

HERE. I LOVE YOU!! 

Crowded Ben Yehuda 

Shushan Purim passes by in the 

Diaspora as a normal day. We have feasted 

the day before, and the fun and excitement 

of dressing up and drinking has already 

been done. But there is one special 

city in the world that will be celebrating 

on this day, when everyone else will.be 

going on with their daily lives. The city is 

Jerusalem. And because Jerusalem was a 

walled city, they celebrate Chag Purim on 

this day. 

If streets like King George, Jaffa, 

and Ben Yehuda seem crowded on a 

Saturday night, then the Purim crowd 

show you what a real crowd is like. 

Thousands of people show up for the 

singing, costumes, food, and festive am 

biance that surrounds the city this day. 

With streets blocked off the people are 

free to dance, and drink in the streets 

without worry. What is most amazing to 

me is how a whole city can celebrate in 

unison. Purim in Jerusalem is unlike anything 

in the world. In New York, all the 

Jews don’t flood 5th Ave. And Los 

Angeles is too vast to have all the Jews 

partying in one area. And in Kansas? 

In the Shul for Megila reading, 

one could be anywhere. But for the spirit 

and Ruach of a people remembering how 

they were saved from destruction, Jerusalem, 

Israel is the place to be.

Pesach uith the Pres. 

I was sitting in my ropm, listening to Hal tell me about his trip to Russia, and I was rudely interrupted 

by the door bell. I answered it, and there stood a man in a suit. I immediately started to panic. In Israel, 

suits mean one thing: Bad news. My fears were compounded when he asked to speak to me. He began to read 

a letter in Hebrew and when he finished, he asked if I understood. Being the ‘Gimel’ student I was, I said ‘Ken’ 

and then nearly fainted. The letter was an invitation from President Herzog to attend his Seder at ‘Beit Hanassi.’ 

The man asked me for a reply, and at that moment I forgot every word of Hebrew. I turned around to the 

crowd of room-mates and friends that had gathered behind me, and asked them to help me explain that I 

needed to cancel my previous plans before accepting the President’s generous invitation, but, alas, my friends 

knew less Hebrew than I did. I managed, somehow. So much for playing it cool. 

I arrived at ‘Beit Hanassi’ at 7:15 p.m. and I was the first guest. Not wanting to feel out of place, I did 

the only natural thing to do — I hid in the bathroom for 15 minutes. When I finally went into the reception 

room, I saw assembled what must have been this year’s members of Israel’s Best Dressed list. Hooked down 

at what I was wearing and thought that I really blew it. On the contrary though. Right away all the guests 

came over to meet me. I was introduced as President Herzog’s distant relative; only, they called him Vivian, 

not President Herzog. Most of the people there were relatives from England. The two exceptions were the 

Herzogs, and the Herzog’s friends who donated the Jerusalem Theater, who were Israeli. Although the Seder 

was in Hebrew, the conversations were all in English, which I was ecstatic about. I don’t mind wasting most 

people’s time with my attempts at conversations in Hebrew, but wasting the President’s time isn’t such a great 

idea. 

The Seder was held in the formal dining room, which was quite elegant. It was a traditional service, but 

laid back and comfortable. President Herzog is quite humorous and down to earth. I sat next to his son, 

Itzhak who’s a law student at TAU but I spent a good part of the evening talking to Ronit, his daughter who 

is still in the army. The food was the traditional Passover meal, but unlike my Seder at home, this meal was 

served to us by servants in tuxedos. After a few glasses of wine, everyone was pretty lively. Itzhak and Ronit 

even started fighting about which tune to sing for ‘Dayeini.’ They were a fun crowd, and the President was 

laughing and joking and telling us about his trip to England to meet the Queen. One of the highlights of the 

evening was eating the Matzoh that had arrived at ‘Beit Hanassi’ that morning, from the Soviet underground. 

We attempt to get Matzoh to the Soviet Jews, and they succeed in getting it to us. It gave everyone at the table 

a feeling of connection and hope for the Soviet Jews. 

The Seder lasted until 11:30 and then everyone slowly started leaving. I thanked them all, and Ronit 

invited me to the family beach house in Herzliya. We’ll see if I actually do end up “catching the rays” with 

the President of Israel. B u t. . . you never know, stranger things have been known to happen*,.

"An Ancient W andering" 

,‘A n Ancient Wandering” 

Dancing among the stars twilight 

is a thought with wide perception 

although where its notion twinkles 

is without a clear direction. 

For I cannot seem to collect 

all the love and fear together 

an unknown season awaits me 

in some hazy, unseen weather 

A cloudy veil passively obstructs 

my point o f view 

the invisible answers are forseen 

behind a sifted, untold hue. 

It is odd to be unsure 

o f a future in the past 

where golden stones prevail 

those who do not last 

I do not know what to love 

nor with whom־ to share my passion 

to confuse a man with soil 

is misplaced like a farmstead mansion 

Yet as long as I am thriving 

in this spiritual haven 

I must seek the spectrum o f being 

with little hesitation 

For life is far too precious 

to spend a moment with misgiving 

it is through this ancient wandering 

that I will learn the art o f living.

How is this question answered,

answered ? 

We are the future, therefore

Do we have free-will? 

Yes. The freewill to decide! 

For we are the living, 

The living that will determine

Dear Family, 

How are you all doing? I’m just great. 

Sorry it’s taken me so long to write you all 

but I’ve been extremely busy here in Israel. 

Hebrew U is or rather was really fun. 

Classes were great and all and I really enjoyed 

myself first semester. You may be 

ask in g yourselves why I’m writing like it’s 

all over. Well in a sense it is. Don’t panic, 

I’m not doing anything you wouldn’t 

approve of. As a matter of fact, I think 

you would be very proud of me. You . . . 

You see I’m still studying. Yep, studying 

like I’ve never studied before. I’m studying 

history and law and even a little psychology 

and ethical conduct. Doesn’t that sound 

great? Ya, everyone here thinks it’s just 

fantastic. If you’re wondering how I’m 

doing all this and not going to Hebrew U. 

it is all very simple . . . I kind of but not 

really, just for a little time joined a rather 

kind of attend a Yeshiva. It’s more of a 

study center with a handful of other guys 

like myself. Really I think you’d like it. 

Anyway, not much else is new with me ex- 

u 

cept that I’m getting married next week. 

Not to worry Ma. You’ll really like her. Her 

name is Batya Shomer Nagia and her father 

is a really important figurehead in a large 

community here in Israel. Ma, she’s everything 

you’d always wanted in a daughterin 

law. She’s a great cook and full of life. 

Of course I haven’t met her yet but I don’t 

think that really matters. You know — 

that’s how they do things in the community 

that she lives in. 

Well folks, again, sorry that it took 

so long, hope all is well. Sorry you can’t 

be here for the wedding. I really tried to 

get you invited, but you know how it is 

with international flights from the States.

A N E W D IM E N SIO N 

Before embarking for Israel, studying in a Jeru- " l l i l ■r! i i u r ; ‏:־ x r m m 

salem yeshiva might not have been tops onyourlistof 

things to do. For most of us, Judaic studies was 

confined to the million dollar Jewish Community 

Centers, Hebrew school, or more than likely, a secular 

university. Something didn’t quite click properly. 

Studying with our’‘zadey’s”Talmud or Midrash in the 

same room that doubles for bingo may have seemed 

inappropriate, if not outright sacreligious. 

To some people’s amazement, there is agrowing 

handful of OYP students who are giving the centuries 

old method of Jewish learning a try. They leave the 

black coats for other’s and bring to this new environment 

a sincere desire to further their knowledge of 

traditional Judaism. 

“A lot of young people are looking for Judaism 

from within and not from without,” explained Meir 

Fachler, coordinator of Judaic Affairs for the O.S.A. 

Most of the students who are studying in a yeshiva 

are frustrated and disappointed that university 

Judaica courses are taught like any other academic 

discipline. Somehow, a mid-term exam in a course 

dealing with Midrash is out of place. 

The majority of these students can be found heading towards the yeshivot in the Jewish Quarter or Mea 

Shearim for morning classes. Most of these students come from traditional American Reform or Conservative 

backgrounds and feel that they should be there studying. 

“I put in my time,” said Dov Hoch, describing his typical Reform upbringing in Bedford, New York. His 

major complaint with his prior Jewish education was that it was too superficial. 

“Other than the basic themes in it, you really didn’t get any of the philosophy behind Reform Judaism. 

The emphasis was always placed on the last cog of progression. For example, during the holiday of Chanukah, the 

manner in which the candles were lit was made paramount to the more important theme of what motivates the 

holiday itself.” 

Throughout the first semester, Dov managed to sit in on a number of worthwhile lectures at one of the 

largest yeshivot, Ohr Samayach. Dov was impressed with the intimacy of the classes there and the quality and dedication 

of the yeshiva’s teachers and students. Eventually, he decided to enroll full time for the spring semester. 

Dov, and many of his fellow native English-speaking students, have nothing but praise for their teacher, Reb 

Gotlieb, former head of philosophy at Johns Hopkins University. He patiently guides his students, who study for 

the “love of God” through complicated and difficult Jewish texts. Dov points out that Reb Gotlieb stresses that 

Judaism is not an antiquated religion of the past, but a guide of life, no matter if one is in 17th century Poland 

or contemporary New York City. The hard decision, according to Dov, is whether or not to choose this way of 

life, not bits and pieces, but everything in its entirety. 

Although the O.S.A. will not directly solicit or promote a particular yeshiva, it will make the necessary referrals 

for interested students. A common complaint of the O.S.A. is that the majority of Overseas students come 

to Israel to strengthen their Jewish identity and search for their Jewish roots, but go home disappointed “Jewishwise.” 

“Opportunities are wasted for most students who fail to further their knowledge of Judaism while, in of all 

places, Jerusalem. ”... They might as well be at Brandeis,” Meir said somewhat sarcastically. 

What does playing backgammon have to do with studying the Migillah or Passover Hagadah? Damned if I 

knew, but Richard Camras and Keith Miller of Los Angeles could answer my somewhat awkward question. Back 

in December, Rich and Keith were relaxing in their Resnick apartment, playing what else . . . backgammon. Then, 

Channah Appel knocked at their door. 

“What was she selling?” might have been most people’s immediate reaction as she asked if she could come 

in and chat. To make a long story short, Channah sold both of them on the idea of furthering their Jewish education. 

Presently, Richard and Keith attend Machon Shlomo once a week with a “real mentch of a guy,” according 

to Keith. “Reb Shelif is very personable and explains everything in modern term?. He shows how Judaism can fit 

in today’s world,” Richard adds. 

Both guys, who have spent many summer’s at Camp Ramah together, realized that they were subtly being 

directed towards living a more Orthodox, or as Channah explained, “traditional” Jewish life. What is nice about 

our teacher is that he is not scaring us away. Reb Shelif is more concerned with us learning and understanding 

explains Richard, who previously felt comfortable with his “Jewishness” but sensed that something was missing. 

It may come as a surprise to some people who equate yeshivot solely with men, that half of the OYP 

students in yeshivot are women learning in women’s yeshivot. Sheri Diamond and her friend, Terry, found last 

October’s “Chassidic Lifestyle Institute” held in Safed “an experience, to say the least,” explains Sheri. 

The week-long institute was dedicated to learning about the Chassidic lifestyle through workshops, lectures 

and “tiyuls.” “I found the Institute a little fanatical and pushy, but all in all, I am glad I went. It gave me a better 

appreciation and understanding of traditional Judaism,” she said. At this point in hA life Sheri does not have the 

time or desire to study full time in a women’s yeshiva.

Israeli P olitical E vents th e Year We Were Here 

Suffice it to say it was a politically eventful year. On the economic front Israel saw two devaluations and 

another year of triple-digit inflation. Social issues included the growing problems between religious and nonreligious 

Israelis with the Sephardi-Ashkenazi rift beginning to heal. In politics we saw Begin step down, Shamir 

come in, a call for early elections, new waves of terrorism between Arab and Jew and a country with queries 

about the Lebanese situation. 

As we stepped off the planes in July and made our way to the banks we exchanged our money at a rate 

of 49 shekels to the dollar — at press time it will be over 200. And remember the exchange rate follows the 

inflation rate. Although Israel’s inflation can be calculated many ways, a rate over 400% for 1984 would not be 

too far off the mark. Likud tried to slow inflation down twice in late 1983 with a 7.5% and 15% devaluation of 

the shekel. The government then found it necessary to close down the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange until things 

cooled down. Needless to say a way out of the economic quagmire will be a hot topic in the coming election 

campaign. 

There were growing problems between secular and religious Israelis. The religious circles want the nation and 

her laws more closely tied to Jewish law. Riots between religious observers and non-religious Jews broke out in 

Petah Tikvah in early 1984. Religious Israelis are opposed to daylight savings time and the 16-week trial period. 

The issue of religious observances is volatile. Resolution will prove to be complicated for the Jewish state. 

Only a little more than a month had passed when Begin decided to resign as Prime Minister. After political 

maneuvering inside and outside the Knesset Yitzhak Shamir was chosen to head the government. With his political 

and economic work cut for him Shamir and Defence Minister Moshe Arens set out for a trip to Washington D.C. 

The meeting with Reagan was positive and agreements with the Administration on economic and military aid 

were secured. 

Into 1984, the Tami party broke from the Likud government coalition to support Labor on a bill calling for 

early elections. After political infighting the date 23 July was settled on. As party lists are being formed, campaigning 

will soon be underway. 

With the beginning of the third year of Israel’s presence in Lebanon approaching, Israelis are still questioning 

the past, present and future of Operation Peace for Galilee. It would be out of place to assess the Lebanese situation 

here. But the IDF (Israel Defense Forces) are still there and the United States, France, Italy, Britain, Syria, 

the USSR, Phalangists, Druze, the USS New Jersey, a changing Lebanese government and a myriad of militias 

were coming, going or remaining. 

In September 1983 the IDF pulled out of Beirut and the Chuf mountains and set up positions on the southern 

bank of the Awali River. Soon after tragedy struck when IDF headquarters in Tyre became the third target of 

Islamic fundamentalist suicide drivers killing over twenty Israelis. Later in 1983 Israel and Syria with the PLO (Palestinian 

Liberation Organization) arranged and conducted a prisoner exchange4,500 Arabs for 6 Israelis.Eight Israelis 

are still being held by Syria. Recently, the Lebanese government abrogated the disengagement of forces agreement 

with Israel of 17 May 1983. The IDF.s major role remains maintaining Israel’s now peaceful northern 

border while observing Syrian, Druze and Lebanese troop movements. 

El Salvador joined Costa Rica in Jerusalem, making these two countries the only two in the world with embassies 

in Israel’s capital. Israeli-Egyptian relations deteriorated further when Egypt severed ties with El Salvador 

for the move. Legislation calling for the U.S. embassy to be moved to Jerusalem is still in Congress and is opposed 

by the Reagan Administration. 

Shocking news ripped through Israel when, on 5 December, a No. 18 bus was blown 

up killing five people and wounding 42. This was the beginning of a horrifying new 

“wave” of terrorism between Arabs and Jews. After terrorist bomb incidences in Ashdod 

and at the Klal building, Jerusalem was the target of another terrorist attack on 2 April when 

three terrorists fired weapons and threw hand grenades before two of them were killed and 

the other was captured. In the aftermath of the assault, one person was killed and 48 were 

wounded. Not two weeks later terrorist activity erupted again and the news horrified 

Israel and the world. Terrorists unsuccessfully hijacked an Egged bus to Gaza in a 10-hour 

ordeal. Upholding the policy of not giving into terror, Army troops stormed the bus 

killing two terrorists, one passenger and freeing 377 others. As Israel became the site for 

widespread terrorist sieges there was renewed concern for “beware of suspicious objects.” 

The particulars regarding the “Hebrew Underground” movement are still unknown or 

unclear. A number of people, the majority of whom are extremist nationalist, are in custody 

for their involvement in Jewish terrorism. Investigation continues in an effort to 

bring an end to these disturbing and unsettling activities. 

These are perplexing problems. Any one of these enigmas has wiped out lesser nations. 

The difficulties are not new, they are reoccurring albeit not in such force or numbers. 

Editorially speaking, if these problems remain unchecked the pragmatism of Israel will 

overwhelm the idealism of a Jewish nation. Hopefully the state and government realizes 

the urgency of these issues and. will do what is ethically proper and not politically safe.

Yitzhak Rabin spoke to a crowded Law Faculty 

auditorium on December 13, 1983. Rabin outlined 

Labor’s position on three issues: a) Security with 

respect to Lebanon; b) economic problems; c) the 

possibility of continuing the peace process which 

began with Egypt. 

Rabin felt that Israeli presence in Lebanon was 

beyond the boundaries of what the role of the IDF 

should be. “To assume that Israel can initiate war to 

achieve normalization with Arabs would be silly and 

unattainable.” 

Comparing Israel’s expenditure of between 16% 

and 18% of the G.N.P. on defense to the spent by the 

U.S., 2% — 4% spent by Western Europe, and 0.5% 

spent by the Japanese. Rabin stressed his position for 

lowering the defense budget. Rabin wanted to see a 

restructuring of the monetary system to assure that 

Israel would stimulate an increase in G.N.P. This 

would cut inflation, which was running away at 15% 

per month under Begin, and create more jobs at 

home. 

Rabin suggested that the solution to the Palestinian 

problem ־be a territorial comprise to create a 

Jordanian/Palestinian State. This would take the 

Palestinians out of refugee camps, a humanitarian 

move, and settle them in a sovereign state. Rabin 

criticized the peace with Egypt; he said it set a 

terrible precedent. Rabin wants Israel to return 

every inch of land she holds due to war victories, and 

uproot the Israeli settlers.

Richard asked me to write an article for the OYP Yearbook. Actually, he didn’t just ask 

me, he told me. Richard is a pretty tough guy. I hear he did Marva. But that’s not what I ’m 

going to talk about. 

So what the hell am I doing writing an article for the OYP Yearbook ? Hmmm ... Damn good 

question. I don’t think I ’d be considered much of an OYP person. I guess I could be called a 

California snob. When I first came to Hebrew U., my first outrageous impression was that the 

campus was a little American ghetto swarming with JAPS from east-coast type schools. OK, so 

maybe I was rightjbut that’s not exactly what I’m going to talk about. 

The fact is, things aren’t always the way they appear to be at first glance. Take Israel, for 

instance. As that well respected piece of literature, L et’s Go Israel, Greece and Egypt 

(C’mon, I’ll bet more of us have read that than we have the Bible) once said: “For all its people 

Israel is a vision, though different for each.” (1983 version,page 315). A lot of us came over here 

with our own personal visions. Some of them joyously unfolded before our very eyes; others got 

turned upside down and beat us over the head. If you still don’t know what I ’m going to 

talk about, let’s take a look at the two following real-life incidents. Try to guess which one 

occurred in Jerusalem. 

Case A: An elderly man carrying two heavily laden bags of fresh produce is crossing the 

street on his way home, and momentarily stumbles over the curb. In a split second, two nearby 

passers-by leap over to catch his fall. Another person from the other side of the street runs over 

to inquire if the man is alright. (The man never hit the ground). The vegetable man carries on. 

aided by a gentleman who insists on carrying one of his bags. 

Case B: An attractive American woman in her late twenties is merrily making her way 

through the crowded mid-afternoon streets. Suddenly, two husky women approaching from the 

other direction at a quick pace cut into her path without stopping and literally “run her over.” 

Without losing a step they continue on, not caring to take notice of the fact that inadvertently 

they have just thrown the helpless American to the hard pavement of a nearby parking lot. Two 

of its employees watch the spectacle in amusement, too occupied with laughter to help the 

woman onto her feet. Shocked and a bit dazed, she later discovers she has sustained a painfully 

sprained ankle. 

The answer, as you may have guessed, is that both of these dramas took place in the 

streets of Jerusalem. In similar ways, they reflect different facets of the Israeli character. Yes, 

the sabra is a delicious fruit; but if not careful when taking off its skin, you could end up in 

the hospital for a week. If someone visited Jerusalem for one day and saw either one of these 

incidents, his vision would not be complete. 

True, as students we live in an isolated environment, but at least most of us have put in 

the time and effort to find out more about this thing called Israel. A vision is a great thing to 

have, but we must not let it be an obstacle to seeing. There’s nothing that pisses me off more 

than the time, last December, that I ran into a bunch of American college students, like us, who 

were visiting Israel on one of the JA’s 10-day blurps. Here they were rushing around from sight 

to sight, most of them in this country for the first time, and they were mouthing off about 

aliyaeJ. Talk about visions, the only thing they really saw was the great view of the Old City 

from the windows of their four-star hotels. How dare these tourists intrude on such a personal 

issue, which many of us have been struggling with throughout the year, and may continue to 

grapple over for some time to come! 

It’s been a year of watching the light flicker on and off. We’ve cried 

at the sight of happy Israeli children, joyously dancing in the streets of 

Jerusalem on the day of their nation’s independence. And we’ve laughed 

in the face of an obnoxious bus driver, who grumbles at us to (KADIMA! ) 

hurry up and get on. 

Because at second glance, those gleeful children are dancing for their 

freedom, only a day after mourning for their fathers who lost theirs. And 

at a second glance, the rude bus driver is a proud Israeli, simply doing his job. 

And that’s what makes this country so special. By looking both inwards 

and outwards, a blurry vision becomes that much more clear. 

So, at second glance, is the campus still a little American ghetto 

swarming with JAPS from east coast-type schools? 

I’m not going to talk about that.

BIKING AROUND 

I’m not quite sure when the idea came to me about getting a bike. 

Maybe I was sitting in a # (fill in your favorite/least favorite bus line) 

and wondering how long it would be till I reached my stop. I probably 

thought to myself, “There has got to be a better way! ” So I found out 

the names and locations of some bike stores in Jerusalem and proceeded 

to the first one on the list, the Motebecane dealer at Binyan Clal, 

or otherwise known as the Clal building. 

I wasn’t quite sure what to expect as I walked into the tiny store, but 

I definitely wasn’t prepared for what would happen next. I fell in love, 

for there in front of me was a beautiful gray, “Grand Touring” Motebecane. 

I stood there stunned, knowing that I would buy this mode of 

transportation. The man in the store looked up at me from his desk and 

said, “Nu, are you interested in a bike? ” I mumbled back something 

about being a student, not having a lot of money etc. etc. Well, to make 

a long story short, three days later I was the proud owner of that bike. I 

was so happy. I felt like a father with his new baby, except of course I 

handed out spokes instead of cigars. 

I look back on that acquisition now as one of the best things I did all year, probably the only thing I did which 

was smarter was not take Hecht’s course in Anti-Semitism first semester. Anyway, after getting the basic accoutrements 

for biking (pump, patch kit, water bottle) I set out to see what Jerusalem really looked like. One of 

the first things I realized was that now I was a vehicle on the road, much to the chagrin of the Israeli drivers. I was 

the victim of notorious cut offs from irate cabs and buses, the receiver of various hand gestures many of which to 

this day I still don’t understand, but worst of all, was the exhaust from the motorized monsters; I felt like someone 

had just set me down next to the launching of a space shuttle, or G-d forbid, in the middle of ten smoking 

Israelis all blowing their smoke in my face. 

I overcame those difficulties though, and found that I could be in the center of town in one half the time it 

took a bus, not even mentioning the money I saved (albeit wasn’t a great deal of saving but it’s something). It was 

great just being able to go to Rehov King George or Jaffo in ten minutes and getting a felafel, or going to Mahane 

Yehuda for some vegetables or the thousands of other things one can do in Jerusalem. I even became good at 

dodging in and out of vehicles as they sat in clogged traffic, and returning to the drivers some hand gestures of my 

own which I had devised during my free time. The only thing which I couldn’t give back to them was a little 

exhaust, but then again, that is one of the beautiful things about biking. 

After I felt I had conquered the city, the next step was outside its limits. The first major trip was down the 

main highway to Tel-Aviv. I ’m sure I shocked some people as they watched a bicyclist fly on down the road . . . It 

was real freedom not having to stare outside a bus window. I could stop wherever I wanted, and begin travelling 

again when I felt like it. One other thing, it is a lot easier going down to Tel Aviv than coming up to Jerusalem, 

but when the weather is nice it is worth the work. 

Now it was time to go into the West Bank, (or whatever anyone wishes to call it). I had been warned by my 

Israeli roommate that it was very dangerous to go there without some form of protection, so I put on a helmet to 

guard against rock throwers and set out. It turned out that in all of the trips I took into the West Bank, I never 

had a single problem. Actually, the people were friendly. Many times I filled up my water bottle from their 

cisterns, had a nice chat, or just biked around villages 

and towns. One time an Israeli soldier who saw me 

asked how I could travel without a gun. I told him 

that I didn’t like guns. A fairly simple answer I 

thought. 

When I come right down to it, biking has given me 

the opportunity to see a lot of things which I normally 

would not have seen; historical sites, war memorials, 

and various Israeli and Arab living situations. I hope 

that more overseas students in the future take up 

biking, it will add to their experience of Israel as it 

did to mine.

Time For W hat? 

And W ho's Shoresh? 

“The Time Is NOW”! Such was the message blaring from bright yellow posters, which 

started sprouting up around campus at the beginning of May. 

Time for what? And who is Shoresh, anyway? Well, according to the WZO Student 

Division, Jewish Students, Network and University Services Department, the time was May 

11th — 13th to bring together overseas students from across Israel for a weekend of activism. 

This 1984 Overseas Student Convention provided the opportunity for 210 students to participate 

in workshops and discussions with experts on campus activism, top government officials 

and high caliber resource persons. The primary goal of the weekend was to show returning 

students effective ways of translating a year in Israel into pro-Israel activism on the campus 

next year. 

Aside from spending three days at Shoresh, a 3 star hotel (pool and tennis court included) 

nestled in the Judean Hills, the convention did have 

more to offer! Hard to believe? Students were addressed 

by such personalities as Israeli author A.B. 

Yehoshua, Hirsh Goodman (Defence Correspondent 

for the Jerusalem Post) and Defence Minister Moshe 

Arens. 

Workshop topics included: “Taking the Campus 

by Storm” and “Campus Media: Getting ‘Write’ Down 

to It.” The issue forums provided students with up to 

the minute info on the 1984 Israeli elections and U.S.- 

Israeli relations. This year’s Overseas Convention was 

unique in that for the first time, OYP students had an 

input into the actual program planning. 

Although the stereo speakers at the Saturday 

night party did not quite cut Sony quality, the level 

of enthusiasm among convention participants remained 

high throughout the weekend. Buzzing conversa- 

tions and heated debates on various issues often continued 

into the late hours of the night. 

By the time the last Mount Scopus bound-bus 

pulled out of Shoresh, one thing was certainly clear: 

activism was in the air .. .

Being in Givat Ram after nearly a year had passed, 

was like making a pilgrimage; striving for a connection 

to the life we’ve made here. On a most pleasant day 

of sunrays and green grass, students gathered together 

for the OSA event “Hakesher.” 

“The main point of ‘Hakesher’ was to put together 

a day to bring everyone together,” said Rina Buberoglu, 

madricha in the OSA and organizer of the activism 

workshop which planned the event. The day was 

also designed to teach students how to fight against 

Arab propaganda, prepare an Israel-related event, 

and promote Israel programs on campus. 

“Hakesher” began with a speech by Chaim Herzog, 

President of Israel. Throughout his speech the President 

stressed the importance of Aliy ah. He also emphasized 

the need for Jewish students to support 

Israel abroad, and remain active in their communities. 

While Herzog spoke of the need for activitivism, 

there was a wide array of activism workshops for 

students to attend. Students learned about such 

things as Soviet Jewry, AIPAC, Arab rights in Israel, 

the Lebanon War and Falashan Jewry. Later students 

attended various “How-to” workshops, among which 

included “Letters to the Editor,” “Making a Flyer,; 

and “Guide to Jewish Organizations.” In the early 

evening there was a choice of two symposia: “Israel 

on the American Campus” and “The Media and Israel.” 

The day culminated in a Shlomo Artzi concert, 

where students listened to Shlomo Artzi banking his 

guitar and whistling familiar tunes into the microphone. 

“What was thought-provoking about the day,” 

said Elaine Sapiro, one of the coordinators of the 

event, “was it made you realize the end is here — 

and time is short; that you're trying to do almost 

everything now — everything in one day.” 

Most people agreed, as they boarded the bus with 

sunburnt faces, that it was a connecting experience, 

perhaps the last one of the year.

O N T H E F U T U R E O F ! S O V I E T J E W R Y 

As 32 year-old Avital Scharansky 

climbed to the stage and turned to face 

the packed Rosenblum auditorium on 

Tuesday night, December 6, I noted she 

looked somewhat wearier than when I saw 

her last, less than a year ago at a similar 

gathering in New York City. Still, not a 

wrinkle marred her fair, dark eyed, 

expressive face. She has been living for nine years now in Israel without her husband, 

Anatoly, who in July 1978 was convicted of treason and espionage, and sentenced to 

thirteen years exile, forced labor and imprisonment, during which time he has been 

forbidden to speak with anyone except the KGB interrogators involved in fabricating the 

case against him. Due to her time away, Avital feels “inadequate” to describe the present 

condition of Jews in the Soviet Union or the plight of the thousands of refuseniks (those 

who have applied for exit visas but have been refused) still trapped behind the Iron 

Curtain. 

Yet, throughout her period of separation from Anatoly, which began the day after 

they were married in 1973, she has immersed herself in his struggle, traveling the globe in 

an effort to arouse the consciousness and indignation of World Jewry. The response has 

been energetic support for her husband’s release. Like the thousands of divided families 

dwelling here, Avital lives only for the day of her reunification with Anatoly — in Jerusalem. 

When Yosef Mendelevich, the second featured speaker of the evening, first applied to 

emigrate in 1969, he was greeted with this curt bit of advice: “Young man, forget about 

Israel. You will die here in Russia.” Today, the oversized black kipah which he wears even 

while away from his Yeshivah studies in Jerusalem, seems his proud respite for this 

gloomy prediction and for the years he spent risking his life while in prison to study and 

teach Hebrew, and to wear the Kipah he had fashioned from the cloth of his prison 

trousers. 

Yosef and Avital are, o־f course, two of the fortunate ones. The last segment of the 

program that evening consisted or a slide presentation written and compiled by Dr. 

Martin Gilbert, renowned scholar, author and Soviet Jewry activist, during a recent visit 

to the Soviet Union. It centered on the current struggle of refusenik families to pursue 

“normal” Jewish lives, to pass on the precious Jewish heritage — to deliver this generation 

of refusenik children from the clutches of Russian subjugation and Jewish ignorance. 

Their task has not been an easy one. The attack on Jewish religion and culture has 

been long and thorough in the Soviet Union. Today, books with Jewish content are a 

rarity. Jewish students are denied entrance into institutions of higher learning; their 

parents are stripped of degrees and demoted to absurd, menial positions that make a 

mockery of any previous scholarly accomplishments or professional ambitions. It is 

virtually impossible to find kosher meat in the metropolises of Moscow or Leningrad. 

And yet Soviet Jewry persists. Such was the emphasis of a talk given by Dr. Gilbert on 

Nov. 29 to members of students in Israel for Soviet Jewry, the newly created activist 

group on campus and co-sponsor or the Soviet Jewry “Happening” two weeks ago. Standing 

before posters bearing the poignant, resolute expressions of Anatoly Scharansky, Yosef 

Begun, Vladimir Slepak, and Ida Nudel, four of the sixteen “Prisoners of Conscience” 

assigned to forced labor and imprisonment because they would not compromise their 

Jewish ideals or aspirations, Dr. Gilbert set out to prove that Soviet refuseniks are not 

“ charitable cases” but rather “strong brethren engaged in their own struggle, with whom 

we must try to link arms.” 

Today, he informed us, there is a concerted and growing movement among Soviet Jews 

to educate themselves in Jewish history and culture, and to learn Hebrew, despite the lack 

of teachers and Hebrew books, and the fact that it is a criminal offencse to teach religion 

in the Soviet Union to students under sixteen years of age.-And in spite of official efforts 

to prevent such congregation, Jewish holidays often bring determined throngs to the sixty 

or so remaining synagogues of the U.S.S.R., as was witnessed during this year’s massive 

celebration of Sukkot in Moscow. 

In relating all this, Martin Gilbert’s message was clear — we must be inspired by the 

strength of dissident Jews and give them good and constant reasons for maintaining it. 

Among the things that we can do: 1) Visit the Soviet Union. There are funds available 

for anyone who is interested in the experience (and mitzvah) of a lifetime. 2) Correspond 

with a refusenik family. Talk about school, your uncle Harold, the weather, Dear Linda — 

Your letters will be like gold to them. All necessary information is available at the Office 

of Student Activities. 3) Become Informed. The Soviet Jewry information packets distributed 

at the “Happening” are a good start. There are plenty more available at the OSA. 

In the meantime we may take heart in the courageous example of Avital, who despite 

her personal tragedy, believes that the real miracle of the Soviet Jewry Movement is the 

Jewish state, toward which oppressed Jews world-wide can direct their hope-filled prayers .

SPRING VACATION ON MINI-MARVA . .. 

AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT 

(The Marva program was designed by the IDF to give young people from outside Israel a chance to learn 

more about the country, and specifically about life in the army. They have programs lasting three months, one 

month, and through the OSA, ten days. The ten-day program closely resembles the Gadna program in which 

Israeli high school students participate). 

“I guess I did it because I ’m not the sort of person who likes to put himself through any unnecessary pain, 

and Marva definitely falls into that category,” explained one of my companions. 

It was 5:30 in the morning, and still difficult to tell if it was the weather or our brains that was foggy. We 

stood by the flagpole in 3’s for what seemed the thousandth time, and I contemplated the pain in my legs and 

the 30 minutes of running and exercises that lay in wait for us. It occurred to me that I had already realized my 

primary objective in coming to Marva — getting away from university life. Indeed, it was hard to imagine that 

we had ever been anywhere else besides the Gadna base in Tsalmon (near Carmiel), that we had ever been allowed 

to roam around places at will, sleep later than 5, or to walk, not run to our destination. Most of us did retain 

memories of better food, but that had been a very long time ago; four days at least. 

Immediately upon arriving at the base, our bus had been seized by a tiny but intimidating hayelet with a 

toy panda attached to her uniform. She shouted at us that we had 3 minutes to get ourselves and our stuff off 

the bus and lined up on the basketball court. At least I think that’s what she said ;since they always spoke 

Hebrew, it was kind of hard to tell at times, a good rule from thumb being to nod numbly and do whatever 

the person in front of you did. 

We made it to the basketball court and were told to line up in 3’s, which isn’t so easily negotiated by 

people who have no experience of the IDF or the Rockettes. We fumbled around confusedly for a few minutes 

while our madrichot yelled at us to “Hurry! Hurry! ” Lining up in 3’s, we were to learn, is very important to 

the defense of the medina. You come to believe these things after a few days of starchy food, little sleep, constant 

exercise, lack of privacy, and the fear of being sent to run laps. (In retrospect, I wonder if these circumstances 

are similar to those in religious cults, but no matter). Other things that are very important in the army 

include being on time, folding blankets properly, dusting over the door frame, waiting until they said “b ’taiavon” 

before starting to eat, and making sure our canteens were dry for morning inspection. Once one of us 

asked Lt. Hermon, who appeared to be running things, why it was so crucial to have dry canteens. “Because of 

germs,” he replied. Well, we countered, if they were so concerned about hygiene, why did they have us doing 

push-ups on the pavement before meals without giving us a chance to wash before eating? “There’s no logic 

to it,” we were told, “but you have to do it anyway. The army isn’t logical.” 

This makes Marva sound rather grim, all the cleaning and running and standing in 3’s, but it really wasn’t 

that bad. Our group never got dragged out of bed in the middle of the night, we never had to do any stretcher 

runs, all the people in charge were fairly decent, the tiyulim were unusual and well-led, the scenery fantastic 

in spite of the rain, and our group, as we kept announcing to each other in moments of idiocy, was really 

“b’yachad.” We ran around the obstacle course, went on hikes, had rocks thrown in our direction'that we 

had to pretend were grenades, and dressed up as bushes and crawled around in the brush. We discovered that 

if Marva was “a taste of army life,” that the army tastes a lot like bananas, 9% cheese, eggs, bread, and watery 

chicken soup. We washed a lot of dishes, sang loudly and badly in the kitchen; it was sometimes fun. 

Mini-Marva also has lessons in the use of the M-16. Guns aren’t toys, no matter how many neat parts 

they have and no matter how much it reminds us sheltered Americans of the movies. It’s more than a little 

It’s more than a little sobering to realize that those tough, official-looking people in uniform who defuse 

bombs, drive tanks, shoot and get shot at are the same age as American college students, who have nothing more 

serious to worry about than getting into law school or paying off student loans. 

On the last night, we had a party, did some skits, and got to find out how old all our commanders were 

and what were their last names. We got to act like real human 

beings and they did too. We were relieved to be returning to 

normal life, our relief punctuated by the knowledge that for 

Israelis, the army is a 2 or year־‎3‎ reality, not just a 10-day game, 

and that it involves things far more difficult, and often more 

dangerous than our mini-Marva experience. It takes a bite out of 

their lives and forces them to be perhaps more serious than 18—22 

year-olds ought to have to be. Nevertheless, the army is a reality 

of Israeli society that, sadly, isn’t going to disappear in the near 

future. For those of us who particiapted in Marva, it is impossible 

to look at hayalim anymore without seeing any further than the 

uniform.

The Walls o f Jericho fell to the sound o f shouts and trumpets. I 

never heard o f walls being raised by that means! Don't worry 

about losing faith. Like love — it is something you cannot force.

“We Want Moshiach Now! ” This was a common phrase heard 

throughout the week at the Chasidic Lifestyle Institute (CLI) — 

CLI was a religious, educational program run by young Chasidic 

couples, mostly Ba’al Tshuva, in Safed. 

In October, ten brave Hebrew Uers attended this program. 

The days began with a Tefilia workshop where we learned and 

examined parts of the Shacharit Service. Following breakfast, we 

had various workshops including: lectures on ‘Religion and Science’; 

the Chasidic text — Tanya; Shechting a chicken (kosher style); and 

baking Challah. Other attractions were visiting Mikvot, touring 

Safed, hiking, and The Big Event. . . a FRABRANGAN. What is 

a “frabrangan’, you ask — it’s a party, Chasidic style with booze, 

song, food, and of course, women only. The scene came close to 

‘Animal House’ — an experience well worth having and remembering. 

We also spent a beautiful Shabbat with different families in 

the area. 

The week on the whole gave us a realistic outlook of what 

the Chasidic lifestyle is like. Many misconceptions were cleared up 

and much was learned. “Baruch HaShem” it was a very worthwhile 

experience.

When I heard that the yearbook staff needed 1 

Program, I made sure that I was the one to write 

it. I have a great success story and I want to share jg 

it with everyone. 

It all began sometime in October at a 

meeting about the various volunteer programs for 

my eye, but my first concern was my Hebrew, or 

lack thereof. I decided not to worry about the 

language barrier and went to a meeting to meet Wi mh 

parents of prospective little sisters. To be eligible V J f ■ 

for the program, the children must come from a 1 

family which has only one parent. The room was !I 

filled with single mothers and fathers talking to > 

students. I ended up sitting with two women and a 

jM 

man and after a brief introduction, found myself 

talking solely to one woman about my family at !H H H B K 9 H I 

home, Israel and even my dog. I now refer to this women as Eema. The meeting went unusually 

well and she told me that her husband and middle daughter were killed in an accident four years 

ago. She then began telling me about the rest of her family: Efra’t, 22, Nati 17, who lives on a 

Kibbutz, Nir, 5, and Limor, my new sister who is ten. At that time they were only names to me. 

We set up a time to meet and I left excited, apprehensive, and prepared to spend the next few days 

studying verb conjugation. 

The next week I boarded a No. 25 bus to Neve Yaakov, my new home for the year. I came 

prepared with a few English story books, pictures of my family, and, of course, my trusty Bantam 

— Megiddo Hebrew-English Dictionary. This was the first time I was ever in a situation where I had 

to speak Hebrew and I soon realized that my spoken Hebrew wasn’t that bad. Limor was even more 

nervous than I was but after about five minutes of talking I took out my pictures. She then ran 

into the other room and brought out a stack of photo albums. After a few visits to the house, we 

began to venture out and to go to movies (I couldn’t believe she never saw the Wizard of Oz!) 

My relationship with her and the rest of the family soon began to change. I was no longer a 

foreigner and became a part of the family. Their relatives were my relatives and my family at home 

became “our family in Minneapolis.” Limor introduced me to her friends as her sister and after a 

long day at school I had a real home and family to come back to. I would go “home” a few times a 

week, play with Limor and Nir and when they would go to sleep I would stay up with Efrat and 

Eema. I would go for Shabbat and by December, I knew all their aunts, uncles and cousins. 

While my relationship strengthened with them, so did the relationship of my friends in 

Israel and family in the States with my new family. Friends from the University came with me to 

their house, and when the kids would come up to Mt. Scopus, my friends would come over and 

play with them. My family at home began sending packages, letters, and pictures from America. 

On Hanukkah, they received puzzles and books, on Valentine’s Day they received Valentines and 

an explanatory letter in Hebrew about the “Holiday of Love,” as my mother called it. When my 

mother was in California she bought hats from the Olympics and sent them to my family. The mail 

from my mother to me virtually stopped, as her correspondence became directed towards my new 

family. For Purim she sent Hamentashen and chocloate chip cookies and the kids went crazy! For 

the first time they realized that Jewish Holidays are celebrated even in Minnesota. During Pesach 

my brother came from the States and we spent Yom Tov with “our” family. What an incredible 

experience that was! They received a package filled with Smurf (not Dardas) cups, lunch bags, 

cereal, slush mugs, and crazy straws. Before my brother went back home, we all made a tape of 

us singing and talking in both Hebrew and English, and we also sent more pictures. For Independence 

Day some of my friends and I went to a picnic with my family and taught the kids how to 

play frisbee. (I guess American toys will always be somewhat of a novelty). Basically, I shared 

them with everyone I’m close to. 

Although it’s difficult to fully describe what happened between myself and my new family, 

it’s easy for anyone who knows me to recognize the effect they had upon me. While I exposed 

them to America — through my family’s letters, and pictures they gave me an even stronger connection 

with Israel. They taught me about Israel; life style, how to speak Hebrew and the importance 

of family especially in a foreign country. This knowledge I never could have gained in a 

classroom. 

For everyone on the OYP, there will be one thing from the past year that will stand out in 

memory. For me it is my new family who made this last year so special. Deciding to participate 

in the “Big Sister” Program was by far the best decision I made while in Israel. When Ileave, the 

bond will continue to be a strong one for myself as well as my family in the States. In fact, my 

brother is considering coming to Israel next year on the High School in Israel Program and knows 

that “our family” will be waiting for him, if not at Ben Gurion, at least in Neve Yaakov.

volunteers in israel 

It was 8:00 a.m. We’d just arrived at the base 

and were busily exchanging stories about our Shabbat; 

who was ahead in the soccer play-offs; “No, I 

still haven’t seen ‘Yentl’.” A siren suddenly sounded. 

The chit-chat ended. We stopped and stood at attention 

for two minutes, in front of an Israeli flag 

flown at half-mast. It was Yom Hashoa. Here I was, 

a Jew, from the heart of the Diaspora, descendant 

from those destroyed in the Holocaust, wearing a 

“Tzahal” uniform, on an army base in the State of 

Israel. Quite a powerful two minutes. 

I was a volunteer on the Looz army base in 

Beit El, located on the West Bank. The first few 

days I was on the base, I found myself wondering 

why I had volunteered for such a thing (many of 

the soldiers had trouble understanding also), but the 

end result was a wonderfully enriching and gratifying 

experience. 

Due to the need for soldiers in Lebanon, many 

army bases were short-handed. It gave me a good 

feeling to know that the work that I was doing was 

needed and useful. 

I worked in what is called “Neshekia” — 

cleaning and checking M-16 rifles. When I began, 

the officer in charge handed me a rifle, assuming I 

knew what to do with it. “What do you mean you’ve 

never even seen one?” he asked me, “They are from 

the United States.” I subsequently learned how to 

disassemble, clean, and then reassemble the rifles. 

The most rewarding and illuminating part 

of my stay on the base, was my interaction with the 

soldiers. They received me, and the other three 

volunteers, openly and warmly. That is, the male 

soldiers. We did not have much contact with the 

female soldiers. They did, however, make it clear 

that we were “treading on their territory.” In addition 

to improving my Hebrew, (much to my Hebrew 

teacher’s delight) my attitude towards Israelis was 

greatly refreshed and my understanding of them, 

increased. Reflecting back on all that I’ve seen and 

done this past year, I see my brief encounter with 

the Israeli army as one of my most memorable and 

worthwhile experiences.

As I sit up here, overlooking all of Jerusalem, I can hear the banging of metal coming from East Jerusalem, I 

hear the wailings of an Arab prayer being broadcasted all over the city. I hear children at play, buses traveling at 

high speed, the bells of a church and cars honking. , 

I feel like I’m on the top of the world, on the top of a primitive, underdeveloped world, yet I also see in / 

the distance the Plaza hotel, the Sheraton, the Hilton and even the far from being finished Hyatt Regency. 

There is so much contrast and confusion in this world ‘of Jerusalem,’and the never ending question that 

is constantly on my mind is, where and how do I fit into it? People are always asking me if I will move 

here, I tell them maybe yes and maybe no. It’s the ultimate decision and destiny of my life-time; how / 

How 

to rec 

onsile 

such a

devoted love 

for this country, 

after twenty 

can I surely know at the age of 20? I want to, I think, but there are so manybuts . . . ifs . . . and / years of fermentwhat 

abouts . . . and it’s not o/11y quick bank lines, drive-in Hamburger stands and Baskin-Robbins / ing disrespect for 

Ice cream, it’s also the feeling of knowing my family is so far away; 11,000 miles away. Worst of / my country of birth? 

all is knowing that I can’t be a part of their lives and that of my friends, and they can’t be a / Today’s mind game, 

part of mine either. I can truly admit that I missed that terribly this year and I constantly try / “Radical leftist?!” scofto 

imagine how I would deal with it for a lifetime. Everytime I visit with family friends in / fed Jewish friends last 

in Jerusalem, I get homesick! 

Down below the city lights are going on, perhaps one day one of those lights could be 

my home. I get so scared everytime I think like that, yet it seems so right. I think I could 

have a contented, satisfying life here yet it would be difficult if my mind spent a lot of 

time in the U.S. with my family. 

All the noises have quieted down now and the city is becoming so peaceful. It’s 

amazing how at peace this country can seem when there are so many external and 

and internal wars going on. I feel like I should stay here and help this country, 

and I want to! 

Yet, is it my help they need? Maybe my energies could be of 

greater importance in the Diaspora? Or is that just a good excuse to stay near 

family and friends and avoid my perceptions of loneliness and feeling left out? 

The city is bright with lights now, the sun has gone down, I feel a warm / 

breeze and I know I ’m home, but the questi 

on . . . 

if which home, lingers

Sure, we’re united on El Sal-

this year. (If I don’t have enough credits

W hat Was It? 

There it goes again, I thought, What was it? 

I was standing at the Mt. of Olives, at dusk. And as the sun set the sky took on an incredible array of 

colors, giving Jerusalem that unmistakable mystical quality. Images and ideas emerged in my mind: Jerusalem, 

the historic site; Jerusalem, the religious center; and Jerusalem, the capital of the Jewish State. 

This beautiful view gave me much to think about. Among my thoughts was the idea of the Jewish 

homeland and the role I would one day play in it. 

Such beauty. Such history. 

Still, there was something else; a feeling. A sensation (I did not know what to call it). But as I stood in 

solitude overlooking the majesty that once was and was yet to be, I was consumed by an unknown “sensation,” 

Its affects were felt all over my body; a weakness that was centered in my lower abdomen but spread so 

much that my head was light and I needed to rest. 

I sat until the sun had fully set and it was not until then that I felt strong enough to trek back to campus. 

I walked and wondered. What was it? It happened again. I was on a ,Tiyul’ in the north and the bus had 

just stopped. I opened the window and felt the cool breeze cross my face. I looked. Again my mind took me 

on a journey into the past. 

It was on these rolling hills that the ancient people first pondered the existence of one G־d. It was on 

this land in nearby Safed that the great rabbis and Jewish mystics argued over the essence of Judaism. And it is 

here, I thought, that today Israel is turning seemingly useless land of rock into good arable land; moreover, 

that in this metamorphosis lies the future of Israel and the Jewish Nation. 

As the others descended from the bus, I remained in place. It was not that I was spent or stubborn, 

rather I could not move. Simply, I was too weak to get off the bus. It was that feeling again. What was it? 

One night, when I was back on campus, I decided to discuss the phenomenon that plagued me at the 

strangest times and place. I consulted a good friend, Harry (who is going bald). 

“Oh, is that all?” Harry exclaimed after I told him all of my symptoms. “I am going bald,” he continued, 

“and you are worried about this?” Now I was confused. I just told my best friend that I almost fainted twice 

and he thought nothing of it. 

“It is Zionism, it is the love for Israel and the Jewish Nation. 

Don’t you see? It is all so simple. Everytime you think deeply 

about this great country you become weak . . . You are in love 

with the land. I get it all of the tim e” he said. “How do I get over 

these spells?” I queried. Harry responded with one word, “Aliyah.” 

It sounded reasonable enough, but I decided to go for a 

second opinion. This time I spoke with an Israeli friend, who 

after hearing the story stated, “Pert, you must to come to live 

here.” 

Well, that did it! I now had my answer and began to think 

seriously about Aliyah until one day the next week, when I 

contracted a head cold. 

I went to the Health Service in building ten in order to get 

medicine. As usual it would be an hour before they would see me, 

so I decided to contemplate all that had !!appended to me in the 

last week. 

As I thought of Israel and the possibility of Aliyah, the 

sensation struck. Of course, it was then that they called my name, 

or a reasonable facsimile thereof, “Pert Raviz, it is your turn to 

see the doctor.” Well, I could not get up and I told the receptionist 

just that. Flustered, perhaps because I did not respond to her command, 

she went for the doctor. 

I told the doctor that I could not get up and that all I 

needed was a decongestant. Intrigued at my dilemma, he asked 

me about my sensation. I explained it to him and said, with a 

knowing smile, “It’s just Zionism! ” He felt my groin and my 

stomach and said, “wrong, it’s a hernia.”

Another One Rides the BUS!!! 

(To ‘Another One Bites the Dust’) 

Let’s Go 

Getting on a bus in town at 11:00 at night 

being pushed and shoved right through the doors 

That I almost started a fight 

I can’t stand it, I can’t do it again 

I smashed against the door. 

There are already too many people on this bus 

And they’re stopping to pick up some more. 

Look o u t. . . 

Another one rides the bus (2) 

And another comes on, and another comes on 

Another one rides the bus . . . 

Hey is he an Arab or Jew? 

Another one rides the bus! 

There’s an Uzi poking me in the ribs 

There’s a pais in my ear 

There’s a smelly ’ol boy standing next to me 

Hasn’t showered in a year. 

Well, I think I’m missing my contact lens, 

I think my Kippah’s gone 

And think this bus is stopping again 

to let a couple more chassids get on. 

Another one rides the bus (2) 

And another gets on another gets on 

Another one rides the bus 

Hey who’s gonna sit by you. 

Another one rides the bus. 

There’s an old lady keeps steppin’ on my toes 

She’s trying to get to the door. 

But her way is blocked by two Yeshiva bochers 

And four strollers on the floor 

I’m going crazy, although I want a seat 

When I sat my pants just tore. 

There isn’t any room for me to breath 

Now we’re stopping to pick up some more. 

Chorus 

The window doesn’t open and the fan is broken, 

And my face is turning blue 

I haven’t been in a crowd like this 

Since I went to see the Who 

I should of got off a couple of miles ago 

But I couldn’t get to the door 

The stupid driver is slowing down again 

And we’re stopping to pick up some more.

How do you find Israel? My God, this question has been asked of me so many times 

within this past year that I find myself beginning to resent being asked. Why? It’s just a 

question and a valid one, but how do I answer? Do they mean how was the One Year Program? 

Do they mean what’s my opinion of Israel in a political sense or in a sociological perspective, 

or just in general? 

How do you find Israel? I ’ve found Israel to be a place that can satisfy so much of my 

life that to answer, “very nice” is just not adequate. But it’s also a place so full of contradictions 

and confusions that to say, “interesting” is again missing meaning. 

I think that when I am asked this question by Israelis they really mean either, “Do you 

believe that Israel is the State of the Jews,” or “Will you be making Aliyah? ” Although these 

questions can be answered with a word, it’s still so frustrating to be asked it so often. At a 

time when I’m constantly growing and experiencing Israel and a new personal realization, my 

answers are and will be consistently changing. 

So often I’m asked these questions as a foreign student here for a year, but to be asked as 

a Jew as well is much more complex. I ’ve watched myself and my friends develop an attachment 

to Israel. This attachment 

comes from terrific 

and meaningful experiences. 

All of us have had them, 

whether it be from religious 

H O W D O 1 FIND 

experiences, attachments 

with Israelis, or just a new 

attitude towards Zionism. 

ISR A EL? 

Through these experiences 

I’ve gained a range of 

emotions that I ’m not able 

to associate with my values 

towards Israel and Israeli 

society. I often think that it 

will not be until I get home 

that I’m able to actually 

realize all I’ve taken in this 

year. 

My OYP experience cannot 

be summed up in a 

sentence or even a long 

discussion and if I ’m pressed 

again by one more Israeli 

asking me, “How Do You 

Find Israel?” I might just 

smile and say —by looking 

in the yellow pages.

The first Judah Magnes medalion for excellence in Hebrew language study was presented 

to Mr. Adrian Gresores at the Rothberg School for Overseas Students on May 28,1984. This 

annual award will be given to a student in the One Year Program who was demonstrated outstanding 

achievement, motivation and participation in his Hebrew studies in the Summer Ulpan 

and the first semester of the academic year. 

Arriving with a minimal background in Hebrew, Adrian moved from the beginners to the 

most advanced level of Hebrew within less than six months. Although eligible to take the 

exemption examination, he chose to continue his studies with both passion and creativity. 

Adrian is from Texas and a biology major at Rice University. 

The silver medalion which protrays the first president of the Hebrew University on one 

side, and the rabbinic maxim “Fortunate the student whose teachers thank him” on the reverse 

side, was made possible by the initiative and generosity of Mr. John Lufkin, a former student 

of the One Year Program. Mr. Lufkin has also made provisions for a similar award to students 

in the field of Jewish studies and Israel and Middle East Studies. 

Prof. Zev. Klein, Provost of the School presided over the brief ceremony. He was followed 

by Mr. Lufkin who expressed his desire to encourage greater interest in the Hebrew language 

and his admiration for Dr. Judah Magnes who has a fervent vision of Jew and Arab living 

harmoniously together in the Land of Israel. Dr. Asher Laufer, Head of the Division of Hebrew 

Language Instruction, explained the general criteria for the award and Ms. Nachama Baras, 

Coordinator of the Division of Hebrew, and Dr. Aharan Singer, Director of the One Year Program 

made the presentation.

Summary 

In the beginning, 

With spirits high 

We shopped and packed 

And said goodbye. 

But in New York 

We said hello 

To those with whom we'd fly. 

Once on board 

They kept us waiting 

But soon we're o ff 

Excited, happy, anticipating. 

The coming months 

Would surely show 

If all our efforts 

Pay o ff or no. 

Let us just say 

One thing they don't tell 

Is that often things here 

Aren't organized too well! 

And now that we've learned 

How to get by 

It seems once again 

That we must say goodbye. 

We now have finished 

Our stay is done 

We shopped and packed 

(My bags weigh a ton!) 

But in New York 

We'll say hello 

To all o f those 

Whom we've missed so!

Laughter UUe Remember 

“Well my friends, the time has come, to raise the roof and have some 

fun . ..” 

To me, these introductory words from one of my favorite songs sums 

up this year. Of course we had classes, and sure we had tests and sorrows, 

but on the whole it will be the endless fun and great companionships that we 

will remember. 

We’ll remember spending the bulk of August in a major Tel Aviv Hotel, 

camping out in the Sinai, and climbing the mountains in Ein Gedi. We’ll 

laugh when we look back at the pictures of us floating in the Dead Sea, not 

to mention our bi-monthly visits to Eilat during the winter moriths. 

Of course this is not all Israel is. There are always the lines: in the bank, 

Post office, and telephones . . . and we ALL have waited in them. Although 

some will argue that we, on the One Year Program, do not really know 

what it is to “live in Israel,” I say we do! We have experienced first 

hand the ever failing economy, terrorist attacks, pressures, and 

of course Machane Yehudah. 

Now looking back, I just wonder where an entire 

year went. I want to thank my dear friends, 

David, Kim, Julie, Susan, Chris, Shana, 

Tammy and Neill, and everyone 

else for making this year such 

a special and excellent 

one for me. Remember 

“Life is 

Good,” 

and please God, 

next year in Jerusalem!
