For decades, a large per-centage of City College students were Jewish—most often the children and grandchildren of Yiddish or German speaking Easternand Central European immi-grants. Starting in the 70’s, that percentage dropped a great deal. Over the past 10-15 years, more and more Jewish students are coming to City College. Hillel, the Jewish student organization, is growing and active with regular “club hour” (Tuesday and Thursdays 12:30-2) activities—social gatherings, entertainment, cultural and political talks, kosher lunches all are welcome to. Other such events are also held outside of club hours.
