- 11 Scrapbooks 1944-1962. 1 unbound scrapbook 1948-1956 includes Gestetner stencils of Sir George Williams College Constitution, scripts for plays produced by Hillel drama groups and the ensuing theatre programs, choir music and flyers or bulletins used to blot the stencils. Bound scrapbooks 1944-1962 include clippings from Hillel student publications, e.g, The Hillelight, and Strobe, also newsletters, e.g. Yavneh Newsletter, B'nai Brith bulletins e.g., B'nai Brith - The Statesman, Jewish community newspapers, e.g. Montreal Community News. Other clippings are drawn from university newspapers such as The McGill Daily and city papers like The Montreal Star. Includes publicity for upcoming Hillel events as well as ensuing reviews. Cultural activities have included lecture series on religious, literary, historical aspects of Judaism both by local Jewish leaders (e.g., Rabbi Maurice Cohen, Rabbi David Hartman in the 1960s) and by speakers of international repute (e.g., Alexander Altman, Salo Baron, Eliezer Berkowits, Eugene Borowitz, Arthur Herzberg and Leslie Fiedler). Contains profiles on graduates as well as excerpts on prominent students like Irwin Cotler and Neil Gilman, who later reached international acclaim. Covers McGill University activities that involved Jewish students, such as debates and student elections. Clippings also cover issues of the day, such as the hate-mail campaign in the early 1960s, Quebec politics, Arab-Jewish relations on campus, interfaith dialogue, and the future of Jewish youth at McGill

- Notes
- The Gestetner stencils are in very poor condition. Scrapbooks from 1944-1945, 1946-1947, and 1947 are fragile. We should proceed to either find a way to conserve or discard them.In 1961, Hillel hosted the internationally reported debate between historian Arnold Toynbee and Israel's ambassador to Ottawa, Yaacov D. Herzog on Israel's treatment of the Palestinians.
