Judaism and Justice


This summer, become a Lawyer

Courses at Genesis provide a challenging, hands-on seminar experience without the pressure of tests or grades.  The “Judaism and Justice” course explores the interplay of American law and Jewish social and moral values. 

  • Consider some of the most pertinent and highly charged legal issues of our time and delve into questions of what is legal, moral and just

  • Study Jewish and non-Jewish sources of law and ethics, providing you with the tools you need for hands-on practice in oral and written advocacy

  • Consider the interplay of ethics, law and social justice, and how ethical decision making can drive you toward tikkun olam, fixing the world
