An active freshmen class has encouraged our Hillel to con tinue old programs, and begin new ones. I have read the "Summit II" information packet, and am very interested in learning more about the program and participating in it. Therefore, please send me the brochure, Gorbachev is Coming to Washington for distribution on campus. On Kol Nidre night, I will deliver an informational speech about S o v i e t J e w r y, a n d a p p e a l f o r i n v o l v e m e n t f r o m t h e s t u d e n t b o d y. I would appreciate it if you could send me the pre-printed post cards, information on adopting a refusenik, letter writing advice, and any other helpful information. I also want to be informed about the Soviet Jewry lobby or any other demonstrations planned fo r th i s ye a r. T h a n k y o u f o r y o u r t i m e a n d a i d . S h a n a To v a h !
