YEAR IN REVIEW | BERNARD REVEL GRADUATE SCHOOL OF JEWISH STUDIES | SCHOLARSHIP • TORAH • WISDOM • THOUGHT
As we reflect on the past year, we are pleased to share exciting updates about our Hebraic Studies initiative at the Bernard Revel Graduate School. This year marked the launch of the second cohort of our highly successful Hebraic Studies Program, a unique collaboration between BRGS and the Philos Project. This carefully curated MA program in Jewish Studies con- tinues to attract students interested in exploring the historical relationship between Judaism and Christianity. We are also delighted to announce that our “Advanced Certificate Program for Korean-Speaking Students” has been renamed “Hebraica Veritas: Korean-Jewish Fellowship Program.” With the capable assistance of Dr. Jeong Mun Heo, this program offers a four-course certificate in Jewish Studies, providing invaluable insights into Jewish thought, culture, and history for Korean-speaking students.
In addition to our academic programs, the Hebraica Veritas Program hosted noteworthy events that enriched our community. The Havruta Vision Forum trip from Korea was a significant highlight, featuring a visit to Yeshiva University and fostering engagement with members of the BRGS community. Another milestone was the gathering of BRGS students with members and friends of the Reformed Seminary in Queens, NY. This event, part of the Hebraica Veritas Program, featured distinguished speakers, including Yeshiva University President Ari Berman, Dr. Sung Kuh Chung, Past President of Chongsin University, and Dr. Yong Ik Kim, President, Reformed Seminary.

We look forward to continuing our mission of fostering meaningful academic engagement with students from varied backgrounds in the years ahead.
