What They’re Saying About The Conference
-
The presentations were rich, as was the surrounding conversation. It was the best experience
of blending disciplines and the world of practice that I have ever had.
-
It really was a spectacularly successful conference and clearly you have a community/
movement in its infancy.
-
It was a real impressive group of presenters and attendees, and I felt that I gained a lot from
the sessions I attended as well as from talking informally with many of the people there.
-
I wanted to commend you on an outstanding conference. I could not imagine one which I
would find more interesting: you assembled such a smart, interesting, engaged, informed
and thoughtful group.
-
I have found vocabulary to address the teaching of Tanakh that I did not have available
[previously].
-
I thought that the level of discourse and dialogue was really first rate and above the norm for
this kind of conference.
-
It’s worth saying that one of the most powerful aspects of this conference has been the
respectful, open sense of klal yisrael, as “denomination” and “religious orientation” have
been put aside as dividing factors. These conversations so rarely take place across these
lines – so refreshing!
-
I am impressed with the engagement of the group and [their] real commitment to the goals
of ‘bridging.’
-
The quality of the presenters was extraordinarily high.
-
The mix of scholars and their interactions were challenging and stimulating.
-
This was one of the most exciting conferences I have attended. The plenaries were
exceptional.
-
In general, the level of discourse in the conference was excellent and much deeper and
more focused than the average academic conference.
-
This conference was a great educational experience. It was designed to really create deep
and rich dialogue, and design matters!
-
My mind is buzzing with things to think about.
-
The conference has really been outstanding!
