Florida Atlantic University has recognized high school and middle school students from across Florida as winners of the Craig and Barbara Weiner Holocaust Reflection Contest. The contest, sponsored by FAU's Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters, asked students to create original works reflecting on what they learned about themselves and modern society through a Holocaust survivor's story. Winners included Danielle Eliaz of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School and Sophia Zann of Saint Marks Episcopal School. The contest is tied to the Craig and Barbara Weiner Holocaust Museum of South Florida, which will be housed in the Kurt and Marilyn Wallach Holocaust and Jewish Studies Building on FAU's Boca Raton campus. The building will feature a recital hall, exhibition gallery, and state-of-the-art classrooms, uniting Holocaust education, Jewish studies, and diplomacy programs.
