Description
-
In 1975, a convocation was held to honor of Philip S. Bernstein and the creation of the Bernstein Chair in Jewish Studies in the Department of Religion and Classics. Bernstein served as rabbi of Temple B'rith Kodesh from 1927-1973, and advised the US Army in finding new homes for over 200,000 displaced Jews after World War II. Bernstein was once described as someone who, while not himself widely or well-known, worked with and knew everyone who was. The keynote speaker at his convocation was Golda Meir, who received an honorary degree.
