What students are saying about Judaic Studies courses:

I truly mean it when I say this was one of the best courses I have taken in terms of getting my thoughts challenged, while also have my critical thinking promoted.

This class is thought provoking.  It invites conflict in an academic sense.  Discussion is very much welcomed, and I personally love it!

I feel appreciated and welcomed with my unique background and beliefs. I also feel challenged, positively, to grow.

Honestly, on of the reasons I really liked the class is Dr. Anat Balint.  Her method of teaching is pleasing to me, especially her way of involving us as students.

If you have any questions, please email Darcy Roman-Felix, Academic Affairs Coordinator at roman@arizona.edu.
