• Vanderbilt to Offer Kosher Food, Partner with Central Synagogue (jewishpress.com) — Vanderbilt University has officially opened a new campus in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood, bringing students, internships, and new partnerships to the area. The site, on the historic former General Theological Seminary grounds, will host study-away undergrads, a future master's program, and potential collaborations with nearby Central Synagogue, while also promising kosher food options and tight security in this largely closed-to-public "secret garden" campus.
