Israel continued from page 1 Jerusalem, experiencing the nightlife in Tel Aviv, a swim in the Dead Sea, scaling the heights of Masada and hiking in the Galilee region. The trip is funded by a combina tion of two sponsors, who are each contributing $9 million to support Israel 2000. The first sponsor is the co-chairman of Hillel, Michael Steinhartd. The second donation is from Charles Bronfman who is also an international board member. “The trip is a gift meant to con nect students to their Jewishness as well as the campus communi ty and the State of Israel, “ said Jeff Klein, director of Hillel’s stu dent activities at the University. Hillel’s Israel 2000 trip, under written by Taglit/Birthright Israel, offers college students the chance to tour the country’s most contem porary and historic sites, Klein said. Taglit/Birthright Israel, a partnership of philanthropists, Jewish communities and citizens of Israel, is a worldwide initiative to provide this learning experi ence to students. “The trip is a way for students not involved with Hillel to build a bridge between Jewish students on campus,” Hillel President Jes sica Elkan said. The sponsors pointed out that neither Hillel nor Taglit/Birthright Israel is affiliated with a political party or a religious movement. Students will meet with Israeli students, as well as business and political leaders while learning about their Jewish identity. “This trip is an opportunity for me to explore my roots,” senior journalism major Josh Frankel said. “I heard that when you step off the plane, it’s mesmerizing. You fall into a different world.” He registered for the trip be cause a friend who had previous ly attended in January described it as a life-transforming trip. Klein and Elkan further recommended Israel 2000: 40 University students and 1,000 students internationally will travel to Israel this summer. The trip is paid for by two $9 mil lion grants. Friday is the registration deadline for the trip. For more information contact Hil lel at 343-8920 or www.is rael2000.org the trip to him. The winter trip in January suc cessfully allowed 3,000 students internationally to visit Israel. Frankel said he is looking forward to seeing Tel Aviv in Jerusalem, the Dead Sea and the Western Wall. The deadline for registration to attend the trip is Friday, although that could be extended due to spring break. Student^can con tact Hillel at 343-8920 or register on-line at www.israel2000.org. Collier continued from page 1 took over the food service because the previous managers, Faculty Club, could no longer operate it. “They didn’t want to lose a place to eat on campus,” said Col lier House manager John Sargeant. “We weren’t willing to spend much money to get the place up and running.” The University stepped in and footed the $46,159 bill, adding a new deck and a wheelchair acces sible entrance, repairing some of the building’s downspouts and restroom fixtures, and improving the kitchen to make it ready for the new food service. “It was rotting. It needed to be done,” said Dan Williams, Univer sity vice-president for administra tion. “The University is the stew ard of this very historic building.” Williams said he was pleased to have a place on campus where students, faculty and staff can gather. The Victorian-style house was traditionally a place for meet ings, gatherings and parties in 1895 when physics professor George H. Collier sold it to the University for $5,000. It also served as a library and the official lodging for University presidents from 1900 to 1941. Downstairs in Coffee at Clan cy’s, the wood-paneled, pub-like cafe, customers can choose from a variety of drinks and food items, including a waffle bar and sand wiches. “I like the fact that they have specialty coffees that you can buy on your meal card,” said Lisa An dritch, a sophomore sociology major. Students on the University Housing meal plan can spend their points here the same way they do at the dining halls. “Students don’t have to go all the way to Carson [Hall] or the Grab ‘n Go for lunch,” Sargeant said. At the stroke of 3 p.m. Monday through Friday, Coffee at Clancy’s goes from being merely pub-like to being an actual pub and serving alcohol. From then until 8 p.m., the space becomes Clancy Thurber’s Bar, serving Oregon wines and a selection of beers ranging from $1.50 pints of Coors Lite to Guiness Stout at $2.50 a pint. Chicken wings, hot dogs and vegan chili round out the pub menu. A more elegant fare is presented on the white linen-covered tables in the main dining room of the Col lier House. Chef Donald Burton prepares fresh entrees ranging from a smoked salmon fettuccine to a braised organic tofu cutlet. Burton, who has been a chef in Hawaii and the San Francisco Bay Area, plans to accent the menu with ethnic and vegetarian choices. Items will be rotated frequently to accommodate patrons’ tastes and take advantage of fresh, locally grown produce, when in season. For $4.50, those in a hurry can sample two soups, three salads and bread at the dining room’s buffet. The new hours at the Collier House, open Monday through Fri day, are: dining room-11 a.m to 2 p.m.; Coffee at Clancy’s- 7:30 a.m. to 2 p.m.; Clancy Thurber’s Bar- 3 to 8 p.m. Over 5.5 Million women in North America suffer from Endometriosis.
