The Weiss-Livnat International MA Program in Holocaust Studies is named after the founder of the program, Yitzhak Livnat z”l. Yitzhak was a Holocaust survivor from Hungary and it is with great pride and honor that our program memorializes his and his family’s story. The first five Cohorts of the MA Program had the honor to meet with and hear Yitzhak’s incredible personal story of survival and triumph. Since Yitzhak’s passing in 2017, the legacy of the Weiss-Livnat MA Program is preserved by his son and daughter-in-law, Honorary Dr. and Mrs. Doron and Marianne Livnat.
