Scholar in Residence Program
This Scholar-in-Residence Program is dedicated to the memory of
Charles (ישראל קלונימוס בן נפתלי) Sidlow עה, whose Yahrzeit we commemorate on ט שבט. Our memories of his intellectual curiosity, his passion for learning, and his love of Judaism have inspired us to establish this program as a fitting tribute to his life.
The 2022 Annual Charles Sidlow z”l Memorial Lecture was held on Motzei Shabbat Feb 5th, 2022 at 8pm. We heard from Professor Ronnie Perelis on the topic of Blood and Faith: Crypto-Judaism in the Americas.
You can watch the lecture here.
We heard from Professor Daniel Rynhold on the topic of Confessions of a Jewish Philosopher.
