The practice of the annual meeting being hosted by a member center or institute began at this meeting. The Board expresses its thanks to Prof. Kevin Spicer, CSC and the Catholic-Jewish Dialogue Committee of Stonehill College for its efficient organization and sponsorship of the second annual meeting. As the CCJR Board had voted at its February 2003 meeting, a public event in connection with the annual meeting was arranged by the CCJR as a way of thanking the host institution. This year this occurred on Sunday evening as a public panel discussion.
