In her slide presentation
this morning at 9:30 in the
Reed Lecture Hall, Lee
Rosenberg will share her
feelings and the experiences of
her "Journey of Conscience"
into the heart of the world of
the Jewish Holocaust.
She stated that the purpose
of her presentation is to show
the Jewish way of life before
World War II as compared to
how their way of life is in
Europe today, as well as to
raise the consciousness of her
listeners to make sure that
they "never forget what
happened."
In 1983, Rosenberg and
other adult children of
holocaust survivors traveled
throughout Eastern Europe,
visiting sites of concentration
camps and Jewish ghettos

ancestors lived.
Rosenberg's father survived
the concentration camps of
Auschwitz and Dachau, and
during the war her mother lived
in the Jewish ghetto in lasi,
Romania.
Rosenberg considers the
trip to be very personal. "I
tried to made a spiritual
connection with my
ancestors," she said.
By attempting to
reconstruct the lives of her
parents, she developed a deeper
understanding of their
hardships, the value of the
sanctity of human life, and a
feeling of responsibility to
keep the memory of their
ordeal alive.
Rosenberg's presentation is

Jewish Community Council of
Erie, Psi Chi, and the

Dr. Carl Kallgren, Professor
of Psychology and Psi Chi and
Psychology Club advisor,
explained the importance of
the Holocaust to the field of
Social Psychology. "Out group
definition was one of the
significant factors in the
creation of Social
Psychology."
In 1935, The Nuremberg
Laws segregated Jews from the
mainstream of German life. As
a historic out group, the Jews
of the Holocaust represent an
important illustration of how
societies can be controlled by
one another.

speech comes at an important
