About Judaic Studies
The Norman & Bernice Harris Center for Judaic Studies at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln was founded in 1991 with the aims of educating the people of the Great Plains region about Jewish civilization and the nature and history of anti-Semitism as well as of promoting understanding between Jews and non-Jews. Since its inception, it has become a vibrant center of academic activity and public programming, offering some twenty courses in the fields of history, literature, philosophy and religious studies, psychology, and political science. Public lectures, such as the annual Kripke, Krivosha and Wald lectures, regularly attract large audiences and deal with such topics as the Dead Sea Scrolls, Jewish-Christian dialogue, and problems of social discrimination. The Harris Center is part of the College of Arts and Sciences at UNL and offers a Minor in Judaic Studies.
