Our Moot Beit Din team handily countered the arguments presented to them by a competing team from Memphis; we had several students getting their Torah yoga on; and our Jews and Video Games students just finished taking a critical look at how Jews in the Holocaust are depicted in the newly released Call of Duty WWII and they’re about to embark on a study of Wolfenstein, the forerunner of most of today’s modern video game platforms, which features a Jewish protagonist fighting off hordes of Nazi antagonists.  It was the first game to include a Jewish main character and scenes of Jewish mysticism woven into an intricate mainstream storyline.  It’s a great time to be an HSJS student!
