Dear Student,<br />
Today, two weeks before the end of the One Year Program <strong>1995</strong>-6, I'm still unsure of<br />
how I can condense my closing remarks to anything less than a small book. There is no doubt that<br />
this year turned out to be an important crossroad in the history of Israel. You were here to<br />
experience the makings of this history- to cry, to mourn, to sing and to hope. In spite of the hard<br />
hours and days (can one forget the night of Rabin's assassination, the bus bombings, the fear?), the<br />
program continued as we tried to provide for you the trips, seminars, lectures and activities that<br />
would explain the situation and setting in which you suddenly found yourselves. We proceeded<br />
forward, incorporating into the Jerusalem 3000 festivities, Kesher Day, and the Photo Contest,<br />
lectures and talks and workshops about Jerusalem's and Israel's society and history. I want to<br />
thank the madrichim- without them a crucial part of your experience in Israel would have been<br />
missing.<br />
Keep these memories with you. Remember. And I hope, someday, that we'll meet again in<br />
Israel. My door will always be open to all of you.<br />
Good luck,<br />
