and helpless students)<br />
Shalom Students,<br />
I love you very much (Kisses to<br />
the audience)<br />
I will miss you all a lot (Crying)<br />
May the rest of your years be as<br />
easy as the past one<br />
You don't have to make Allyah all<br />
at once<br />
This was the greatest year of my<br />
life...<br />
(Curtain Goes Dow n)<br />
Fortunately this is all true! I wish<br />
you the best of luck. I really en-<br />
Joyed my year with all of you. The<br />
trips and seminars were a lot of<br />
fun. I tried to assist you with a<br />
range of experiences through lectures,<br />
trips, parties, and openhouses.<br />
I know that you will remember<br />
this year forever and I hope that<br />
you take what you have learned<br />
back to your home countries, wherever<br />
they might be, so that your<br />
friends can gain from your experlences.<br />
Your experience was special<br />
because of the many changes that<br />
occurred In the Middle East during<br />
your stay. I hope that the Peace<br />
Process will be as successful as we<br />
all wish it to be. I also hope that<br />
the next time you come to Israel,<br />
your parents will be slightly less<br />
worried and that you will be able to<br />
visit all of our neighboring<br />
countries without the need to get a<br />
new and *clean* passport.<br />
Keep In touch,<br />

It began at the end of July. It<br />
was a hot and humid day. We<br />
waited for you at the airport with<br />
colorful 'Welcome Hebrew U’ signs.<br />
I was perspiring; partly from the<br />
heat but mostly from excitement.<br />
Suddenly we spotted you, exhausted<br />
from your flight, and escorted you<br />
to Givat Ram. Truthfully, I wasn’t<br />
sure how you would react to<br />
M eonot H aE lef but you were<br />
quite heroic. It took a day for the<br />
shock to wear off, and soon you<br />
were more fam iliar with<br />
Ben/M achane Yehuda than I<br />
was. During the week you studied<br />
your "A lef-Bet' and on the weekends<br />
you travelled all over the<br />
country. Even the Israeli summer<br />
heat didn’t stop you. And now this<br />
year is already behind you. A year<br />
of school, tiyulim, parties, and lots<br />
of fun. I hope that you learned<br />
about Israel and mostly about yourselves<br />
this past year. As for me, I<br />
am happy that I was given the<br />
chance to get to know you well; I’ve<br />
learned a lot and epjoyed myself<br />
doing it. Hope to some day see you<br />
again.<br />

Dear Graduate Students,<br />
It's hard to believe, but this year<br />
has come to an end. It seems as If<br />
just yesterday you had all arrived,<br />
and now It’s already time to say<br />
goodbye. I know that most of you<br />
feel that there was not enough time<br />
as you would have liked to see,<br />
hear, and feel everything this country<br />
has to offer. But nonetheless,<br />
you have accomplished much. I<br />
know we tried to show you most of<br />
the natural attractions and I hope<br />
that in our more informal meetings<br />
and discussions, I managed to<br />
share other aspects of Israel with<br />
you. I also hope that from all you<br />
have learned, you can come to appredate<br />
all of the accomplishments<br />
that Israel has achieved In the last<br />
forty-six years along with Its problems<br />
as well; bureaucracy, hot ternperament,<br />
etc...<br />
As you prepare to leave, I wish<br />
you all shalom for Its three most<br />
perfect meanings: go with peace, be<br />
with peace, and come back with<br />
peace.<br />
Thank you all for an outstanding<br />
experience!<br />
