Scope and Contents

Oral history interview with Arielle Korman, Davidson College class of 2017. Arielle Korman discusses her background growing up Jewish in New York, including her synagogue, music, and education. She contrasts the rich religious community she had to her experience of Jewishness at Davidson College, which was more focused on active education, leadership, and community building. Korman talks from her perspective as a former student leader: the events she held, promotion of Jewish student life, but also her struggles with the images of Davidson as (or not as) a place for Jewish students and being a community figure. Finally, Korman talks about her response to the neo-Nazi doxxing at Davidson College in 2018 and the subsequent antisemitism training she co-hosted with Dylan Goodman on campus.
