Read about our newest graduates in the 2008 Graduation Program Book.

Every year at graduation, Academic Dean S. Tamar Kamionkowski, Ph.D., speaks to each graduate in a deeply personal way, as she and President Dan Ehrenkrantz confer the title of Rabbi. These talks offer insights into the kinds of people who come to RRC, the learning community they join and strengthen, and the rabbinic paths our graduates pursue. Read Kamionkowski's talks for an intimate glimpse of the graduating class of 2007.
