The Great Debate
The Great Debate
The Washington and Lee University Hillel held its annual latke-hamantaschen debate last Tuesday to determine which food was better, and the audience voted for the latkes. The event coincided with holiday Purim, which commemorates the saving of the Jewish people from annihilation at the hands of an official of the Achaemenid Empire named Haman. AT LEFT, Bill Hamilton argues on behalf of the latkes, showing why they are more suited for mobility. Hamilton’s teammate was Jeff Schatten, while Lisa Greer and Brian Alexander argued for the hamantaschen. ABOVE, Maggie Shapiro Haskett, former director of Jewish Life at W&L, gets a latke prior to the debate. Also in attendance was Mark Robbins, W&L’s new director of Jewish Life.
