A Jewish civil rights group named Shurat HaDin – Israel Law Center has launched the “Campus Hotline,” a manned telephone switchboard to assist university students who are subjected to anti-Israel and anti-Semitic attacks at their schools. Students and faculty are encouraged to call the Campus Hotline at (718) 907-9258 to report any incidents of anti-Semitism, discrimination, intimidation, or harassment arising from anti-Israel activities on campuses.

What's New Upcoming Events Late Night Learning
Late Night Learning
The tradition of Tikkun L'eil Shavuot (Late Night Learning on the eve of Shavuos) continues at Adams Street with great teachers this year:
Our own Rabbi Norbert Weinberg will kick off the event at midnight, with a presentation entitled, "What Really Happened at Har Sinai?" Rabbi Weinberg received his B.A. degree and his rabbinic ordination from Yeshiva University, and later earned a Masters Degree in Education from Rhode Island College. Rabbi Weinberg's first pulpit was in Quebec City, Canada; before serving two congregations in Massachusetts, first in New Bedford and then for thirty years in Fall River. He then retired from full-time labors and accepted a part-time (weekends only) position in Norwich Connecticut, commuting from Newton for each Shabbat. In 2005, Rabbi Weinberg pursued a part-time position closer to home, becoming the Rabbi of the historic Adams Street Shul, in Newton, Massachusetts.
Rabbi Shlomo Yaffe, is a distinguished and widely-traveled lecturer. For seventeen years, Rabbi Shlomo Yaffe was the Rabbi of Congregation Agudas Achim of West Hartford, Connecticut, where he also served as Jewish Chaplain to the Hartford Fire Department, and was the founder of The Connecticut Symposium on Contemporary Legal Issues and Jewish Law in Hartford. Rabbi Yaffe is an expert on secular law and legal ethics. He serves as a legal consultant and lecturer for The New York Legal Assistance Group, is Dean of the Institute of American and Talmudic Law in New York, a member of the adult education staff at Chabad of Midtown Manhattan, and Permanent Scholar-in-Residence to Chabad at Harvard University. He is also the founding director of The Institute for Jewish Literacy. At Adams Street this coming Saturday night (well, Sunday morning actually), Rabbi Yaffe will present a shiur entitled "The Other Shavuos - What the Mystics Saw."
Join us this coming Saturday night at midnight. These formal educational presentations will be followed by an informal community of learning thereafter. Coffee and refreshments will be on hand to help us keep going. For more information, contact Benyomin Fleischmann at .
