Biography/Organization History
Historical Note:
The College Credit Program for Adults began under the University Institute as a pilot basis. The program offered a series
of college credit and college level courses for adults. By 1975, the College of Adult Jewish Studies
offered adults an AA degree in Jewish Studies and for those who wanted to go "beyond their AA degree towards a BA, continue
with courses in Jewish Law, philosophy, religion and other areas". Henry Fisher served as the Coordinator of the Adult College.
