About Us

CHGS was established in 1997 by Dr. Stephen C. Feinstein with the combined support of private endowments and the University of Minnesota’s College of Liberal Arts.  As our founding director, Dr. Feinstein was a visionary innovator who worked tirelessly to promote the ideals, programs, and resources of CHGS on an international scale. As scholar, colleague, mentor, and friend, he was cherished by people around the world whose personal and professional lives were impacted by the Holocaust and other genocides. CHGS stands as a living memorial to his legacy.
