Harvard Law School Professor Alan Dershowitz presents a vigorous case for Israel--for its basic right to exist, to protect its citizens from terrorism, and to defend its borders from hostile enemies.  He engages leading political, judicial and academic leaders from Israel and North America in objective and intelligent discourse on the critical challenges facing Israel and the West.

"No Tests.  No Homework.  No Grades.  KNOW Judaism."  This is the new slogan for the Florence Melton Adult Mini-School, which enables Jewish learners from all backgrounds to learn about Jewish heritage and culture in a challenging and inspiring course of study.  There have been changes to the Melton program:  the fee has been reduced and the program is now sponsored by Temple Beth El, the Springfield JCC, and the Jewish Federation of Western Massachusetts.
