From the Rose Report:
Israel education also takes place in the classroom. In early 2010, the Rose Project
was asked to assist in bringing a full-time Israeli professor to UCI. This brings
a unique and first-hand perspective to the students and faculty of UCI, as well as
the members of the greater Orange County Jewish community. Professor Menachem Hofnung,
an expert in political science, is the 2010-2011 Schusterman Visiting Israeli Professor
at the University of California, Irvine. His appointment at UCI is part of the Israel
Scholar Development Program that is coordinated by the American-Israeli Cooperative
Enterprise (AICE) and funded by grants from The Charles and Lynn Schusterman Family
Foundation and the Rose Project of Jewish Federation & Family services Orange County.
