one-of-a kind events.

Please check out each of this week's programs - Women in Medicine, our
Kristallnacht program (our Fall Holocaust program), and our opportunity to
volunteer at Uptown Cafe, Chicago's only kosher soup kitchen.

The following week there are 4 amazing entertainment happenings - 2
on-campus - 2 off-campus.
  We are announcing them this week so you can save the dates, and we will repeat them next week.

of combining being a woman and being a doctor.

The panel will be moderated by Fran Belmonte, PhD., Associate Professor in
the Institute for Pastoral Studies and the Department of Theology, who for
20 years taught a course in Medical Humanities at Loyola University
Medical Center.

A reception will follow the panel discussion.



KRISTALLNACHT, NIGHT OF BROKEN GLASS, WAS NOVEMBER 9, 1938, WHEN THE NAZIS
BURNED 267 SYNAGOGUES, DESTROYED 7,500 SHOPS AND SOME 30,000 JEWS WERE
DEPORTED.


WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 9 - 4 PM - TEA ROOM - MUNDELEIN CENTER - FIRST FLOOR

In Commemoration of the 67th anniversary of Kristallnacht, the Night of
Broken Glass, we invite you to a very special program....

An opportunity to learn from

        ANNE LANDAU, PhD

        "The Mysteries of Rothschild Hospital, Paris, 1941-1944"


Anne Landau, a faculty member in the Dept. of French and Italian at
Northwestern University, has researched the largely untold story of how
France's Nazi-controlled Vichy government turned the Jewish Rothschild
Hospital from a place of saving lives to a place of transporting Jews to
their death.  She will share some amazing stories of survival including
the secret pockets of resistance that occurred even within a hospital
whose mission had turned from sustaining life to becoming a road to death.

This program is being co-sponsored by the Department of Modern Languages
and Literature.



VOLUNTEER AT UPTOWN CAFE, CHICAGO'S ONLY KOSHER SOUP KITCHEN

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 10 - MEET AT HILLEL AT 5 PM - WILIL RETURN BY 8 PM

Located in the heart of Uptown at 909 W. Wilson, The Uptown Cafe is part
of Project Ezra, the Jewish community's initiative to help the extremely
needy and sometimes homeless Jews of the Uptown neighborhood.

What is special about the Cafe, is that the setting is like a corner
restaurant, and the volunteers don aprons and use order books, and
welcome and serve the diners as guests in the restaurant.  The only thing
the diners do not get is a bill!

If you can help on Thursday, either sign up in the Hillel office or
e-mail Patti Ray at pray@luc.edu.



NEXT WEEK'S SPECIAL ENTERTAINMENT WEEK!

Ramallah" was one of Hillel's biggest campuswide programs.

neighborhoods of Chicago, its characters and sounds.

art of human beatbox.
