ATID recently published two short essays entitled "The Economics
of Edutainment," asking hard questions about a declining
educational atmosphere in yeshivot and seminaries which educate
Diaspora students in Israel, and pointing a finger at a lack of
economic professionalism and poor treatment of staff in at least some
schools. Many respondents thanked ATID for saying what others feared
to say, while others suggested that lamenting problems did little to
solve them.

Please join us for an evening of discussion on "The Economics of
Edutainment." Four panelists, all experienced educators or
administrators in one-year programs for men and women, will raise
differing perspectives on the changing landscape of our educational
institutions, after which we will make the first steps in convening
smaller working groups to help propose solutions to the problems we
decry.
