Horrible class. Lectures are boring and she is a very hard grader. A lot of work and she is not very friendly in my opinion. The concepts are pretty boring also.

In 1974, the Vatican explicitly called on Catholics to understand Jews as they understand themselves. In our world of dialogue and post-Holocaust repair of relations, Jews similarly ought to understand Christians. This course will explore key topics in the contemporary Christian-Jewish dialogue with the goal of both enabling this understanding of the other and enhancing self-understanding. Students who do not identify with either tradition are welcome to enrich this conversation. Satisfies Core requirement for: Theology (Sacred Texts and Traditions)
