Dear Jewish Students, Faculty and Staff:<br>
<br>
During Jan term we had an open
forum on Gaza for Jewish members of the Hampshire community. This was
an opportunity for Jews on campus to have a safe space to discuss their
thought, feelings and reactions to the war in Gaza, as well as their
thought and feelings about Israel. Since not everyone was on campus
during Jan term, there will be another discussion on Tuesday February
17 @ 7:30 in the Merrill Living Room.<br>
<br>
In order to
provide safe space for ALL opinions, this program is limited to Jewish
students, staff
and faculty. Please remember that this is an opportunity for people to
talk about their own feelings and thoughts and NOT to try to convince
anyone of who is right or wrong.<br>
<br>
It is still my hope to have another open conversation for the
entire campus, as has happened before together with SJP, in the future
as well.<br>
<br>
Shalom/Salaam,<br>
spn<br>

more deeply immersed I became in the thinking of the
prophets, the more powerfully it became clear to me what the lives of
the
prophets sought to convey: that morally speaking there is no limit to
the
concern one must feel for the suffering of human beings. It also became
clear
to me that in regard to cruelties committed in the name of a free
society, some
are guilty, all are responsible."<o:p></o:p></span></p>
