The 2000/2001 Lecture Series featured fascinating presentations such as the Dead Sea Scrolls Symposium, the Discovery Seminar (a popular modern Jewish education program), The Future of the Peace Process lecture by important Israeli political figure Moshe Arens and the Kallah series of lectures by renowned Jewish thinkers.

Other speakers in this series have included Anna Rosmus, former Israeli Prime Minister (presently Foreign Minister) Benjamin Netanyahu, Robert Fulford, Dr. Irwin Cotler, Dr. Mitchell Bard, Joseph Farah, Dan Meridor, Sheikh Professor Abdul Hadi Palazzi, Dr. Daniel Pipes, Dr. Yossi Olmert, Dr. Michael Oren and Steven Emerson.
