Today, less than ten percent of the genes of Jews living in the 13th century still exist. Think about that for a second. When we talk about genocide, that’s the kind of impact that defines the term. The 20th century Holocaust carried out by the Nazis played an important role in bringing about this grim figure, but it received lots of help through centuries of antisemitism and antiJudaism. Putting this historical record in its broader perspective will be the aim of the college’s next phase of Holocaust education.

Michael Blackman doesn’t hesitate for an instant when considering what’s more likely to cause the biggest spike in his nerves – his daily role as dean of students at UNH, or his return to the stage and New Hampshire theater debut in this summer’s production of Footloose as part of the Prescott Park Arts Festival in Portsmouth.
“It will certainly be this,” Blackman says of the performance. “You’d think after dealing with massive crises and protests and various other student issues that my day-to-day job would be the scarier thing, but I haven’t been on stage in about 10 years.”
