Bob and Sandra Borns
The Borns Jewish Studies Program has been able to flourish because of the support of community members who recognize the value of scholarly inquiry and public education. Many of these supporters have elected to join the Friends of the Borns Jewish Studies Program, one of the largest support groups at Indiana University. The contributions of Friends provide student scholarships, subsidize public lectures and other special programs, and support the costs of scholarly research and conferences.
