The Center for Judaic Studies is proud to announce our 2019 undergraduate award recipients in Hebrew and Judaic Studies. The awards for excellence in Holocaust studies were presented at the Annual Academic Convocation on the Holocaust; awards in recognition of outstanding scholarship in Hebrew and Judaic Studies were presented at the Department of Literatures, Cultures, and Languages Annual Student Award Ceremony. Students studying at the Stamford campus received their awards at a ceremony in Stamford on May 14.

The awards of the Center for Judaic Studies are made possible thanks to the continued support of our donors. Through their generosity, we are able to support and recognize the achievements of our students.
