Eyal Rivlin promoted to Teaching Professor and more news Anonymous (not verified) Mon, 08/26/2024 - 08:49

In August 2024, Eyal Rivlin was promoted to Teaching Professor.

In the summer of 2024, The Nonbinary Hebrew Project, cofounded by Lior Gross and Eyal Rivlin, was selected as a grant recipient of the Rise Up Initiative - Nurturing the Soul of Jewish Justice. As the their mission states, “Rise Up grantees are shaping an inherently Jewish blueprint for leaders, activists and citizens. They are illuminating new access points for the integration of spiritual life and social justice commitments. And they do this in a deeply relational way that centers voices often on the margins of Jewish life.”

Continuing to serve the larger Boulder community, Eyal Rivlin produced the music and facilitated the Yom Hazikaron (Israeli memorial day) event at the Boulder JCC, as well as performing on the main stage for the Boulder Jewish Festival on Pearl St, and the Reb Zalman 10 year communal memorial service.

In response to public requests, 91��ý experts will discuss range of topics in Arab-Israeli conflict at Wednesday forum, which is open to the community.

A weekend cease-fire extension and the continuing release of hostages have raised some hopes, but the devastating war in the Middle East has also raised many questions.

Many members of the University of Colorado Boulder campus community have asked for expert insight into the conflict and its centuries-long history. In response, the Program in Jewish Studies will host “Explaining Conflict and War in Israel, Gaza, and the West Bank: Community Discussions with CU Faculty Members” from 5 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Wednesday in UMC 285-289.

The event, which is open to the public, is being organized by the Program in Jewish Studies and co-sponsored by the Center for Humanities and the Arts, the Department of English, the Department of History and the International Affairs Program.

It will follow an informal format and allow individuals and smaller groups of participants to discuss a specific sub-topic, ranging from antisemitism to the long history of the Arab-Israeli conflict, with faculty experts, including:

Janet J. Jacobs, professor of distinction in women and gender studies
Zach Levey, Israel Institute visiting professor and visiting professor of international affairs
Karim Mattar, associate professor of English
Thomas Pegelow Kaplan, Louis P. Singer Endowed Chair in Jewish History and interim director of the Program in Jewish Studies
Eyal Rivlin, teaching associate professor of Jewish studies
Rebecca Wartell, teaching associate professor of Jewish Studies
