Here is the history of Jewish education at one such university.
Columbia University has fostered one of the longest and most distinguished traditions in the academic study and teaching of Jewish civilization. Columbia University pioneered in the development of Judaica since its very beginnings as King's College:
· Samuel Johnson, the first president of King's College, exhorted
his students to study Hebrew writings, both for their theological value and
for the intrinsic beauty of the language.
· Myles Cooper, Samuel Johnson's successor, stressed Hebrew instruction
in King's College in 1773. He noted that Hebrew was, indeed, a subject to
be taught by "proper masters."
· Rabbi Gershom Mendes Seixas, an early trustee of Columbia College,
provided an early example of excellence in Jewish scholarship.
Interest in Hebrew languages and literature, and in the history of the Jews
in America, grew in the 19th century. In the 1880's Columbia led the way toward
modern Judaic studies with new programs of instruction in Semitic languages.
Their collection of Jewish materials has continued to expand to this day.
It now comprises some sixty thousand Hebrew and Yiddish titles, in addition
to its large holdings of Jewish scholarly works in Western, Russian and Slavic
languages. The University's Rare Book and Manuscript Library houses twenty-eight
Hebrew incunabula, over three hundred sixteenth-century printed books, and
more than a thousand manuscripts.
