Welcome to the Jewish and Israel Studies Blog at Wesleyan University. On this blog we will be posting upcoming events sponsored by Jewish and Israel Studies. The blog welcomes follow-up comments from readers concerning matters raised at these events. In addition, the blog will be a site for reader responses to audio and video recordings we will be posting of academic lectures, poetry readings, conference papers, and other cultural events sponsored by JIS.
We intend to be experimental with this blog over the next few months, and we look forward to hearing suggestions from readers about ways we can make it useful to them.
