Biographical History
Formed in 1950 as a result of the merger of the Cincinnati based Hebrew Union College (founded in 1875) and the New York Jewish Institute of Religion (founded in 1922).
The Jewish Institute of Religion was an educational establishment created by Rabbi Stephen S. Wise to train rabbis in Reform Judaism in 1922 in New York City. It was merged with the Hebrew Union College in 1950; HUC was founded in 1875 under the leadership of Rabbi Isaac Mayer Wise in Cincinnati, Ohio. A second campus in New York City was created through a merger with the rival Reform Jewish Institute of Religion in 1950 and additional campuses were added in Los Angeles, California, in 1954 and Jerusalem in 1963.
