the president and chancellor of the university, doctor doty and doctor strube asked them if they would be interested in coming back as a presidential fellow for a week each spring. to my very great surprise and delight, he agreed. so my colleague in english jan and i have created a course to engage students in different disciplines within the university and really come to understand him not only as a holocaust survivor and witness but as the author of 60 different books which encompass many different genres. so it began as a kind of adventure for my colleague and i. the best part of teaching is you sometimes get to sit in a seminar with students and read works that you have not had a chance to read before. i think part of what makes a class like this such a really wonderful learning experiences bringing together students who are taking the course for general education or credit and different disciplines. their students in the class who are taken for religious studies credit, certainly many of the things we will be talking about in the course are religious things. and ethical themes. st
