Abstract: | The historic sin of the American Jewish education profession is its indifference to its own history. Not least among the failures of American Jewish education is its ignorance of the achievements of its pioneers and its inability to chronicle its own successes. This failure of a profession to record its past is perhaps less due to willful callousness than to naivete and sheer lack of understanding of the effects of historical ignorance upon the present. |
