This spring the Smith College Club of France will host Close-Up on Israel: Any Closer to Peace?, a talk by Smith professor Justin Cammy.
Cammy, Associate Professor of Jewish Studies and Comparative Literature and a former director of Middle East Studies at Smith, is a specialist in the ways in which Jewish history, politics, and culture intersect. As part of the Smith Global Engagement Seminar program, he has been taking Smith students to Jerusalem since 2011 to study the religious and political history of the city. He has also served as faculty-in-residence on Smith alumnae tours to Israel, including a trip planned for October 2014.
The event will take place in Paris on Saturday, April 5, 2014 at 7 p.m. The talk will be followed by pot-luck supper. Alumnae interested in attending should e-mail smithcluboffrance@gmail.com to register and receive the event location.
