High School History Teacher's Article Published in Leading Academic Journal

Congratulations to HS History teacher Dr. Shira Kohn whose article appears in the October issue of the leading academic journal American Jewish History. Shira says that the article "looks at how a group of Jewish college fraternities and sororities worked to bring Jewish students expelled from Central European universities over in the mid-late 1930s; in doing so, they ended up saving the lives of over a hundred young people caught up in the rise of Hitler and outbreak of World War II."
