If I were to give a lecture/ teach a class somewhere in Washington Heights, would you come?
What would you like the topic of the lecture to entail? (Options: Tanakh, Sex & Gender Roles- I could teach you my class, Classical Sociological Theory, English Literature, English Literature and Tanakh, etc.) And if you wanted it to be a longer series/ class, what would you like it to be a class on?
Just figured I should see if there is any interest in this.

What a question!
I absolutely love your Tanakh related posts and have been reading them for the past couple of years. I would enjoy Tanakh lectures on Biblical leaders in particular and weekly parsha as well. Looking forward to the poll results.Thanks.
If I were in the area I would certainly come to your Tanakh lectures/studies! I find them interesting and often meaningful (even if I find myself at odds with your reasoning sometimes:))
Sadly,I'm not in the area though :(
Go for it!!
Sounds cool. I would try to come.
And so would I.
I'd love to learn about great women in Tanakh and would love to attend,time permitting that is.
No
I'll be there!
i would love to come.
alas, i'm currently in pa for the summer.
but i say, GO FOR IT!
and podcast it, of course, so we could listen to it over the internet.
if i may humbly propose, to do these classes under the aegis of some shul, e.t.c., you may attract more people.
have faith in yourself! like we say at nike: just do it!
I definitely would (just not now, since I'm studying for the Bar!). I'd actually be interested in all of the above! :)
I'll have to shlep from Brooklyn,but I'll be there.
Chana,Tanakh related lectures would be awesome! I'm sure once classes start in the Fall you'll get Stern girls wanting to attend too.
Sex & Gender Roles- I could teach you my class,
Do you mean a curriculum you developed, or the class you are taking this summer?
I would certainly like to attend such a class; however, since the trip from Florida would be slightly impractical, I think I will just stick to reading your blog! :-)
Regarding the topic of your proposed class, I agree with all of the other commentators that requested a course on Tanakh and I also think that a podcast would be great. The only advice that I can add is to know your intended audience/community. If they are more traditional, you may want to focus more on traditional exegesis. However, if they are looking for something more modern, I would recommend a lecture combining literature and Tanakh.
No matter what topic you choose, I am sure that you will do a great job!
P.S. Did you get my email last week?
i'd be interested
