Cohen Center Trip returns

Twenty-one travelers left KSC June 7 on a Holocaust Studies Travel Seminar organized by the Cohen Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies designed as an educational mission for friends of the Cohen Center and students from the new Holocaust and Genocide Studies major. Dr. Henry Knight and Dr. Paul Vincent led the ten-day tour and were accompanied along the way by local academics and guides, among them a Holocaust Survivor. The group toured several Holocaust-related sites, including the Warsaw Ghetto, Treblinka, Majdanek and Auschwitz. They also visited several Jewish cemeteries and synagogues in Germany, Poland and the Czech Republic. The group comprised 4 H&GS students, KSC staff and friends of the Cohen Center.
