Rodger and his family, wife Melanie, and sons Lane and Dan, seem to spend most of their time chasing the four cats who run their house. When not busy doing that they’ve been trying to grow native plant-life on the acid, sandy, clay filled soil they call their property. They figure in another twenty-five years its going to be quite pretty.

Office:  E212
Phone609-652-4418

Marcia Sachs Littell is Professor of Holocaust and Genocide Studies and the Founding Director of the Master of Arts Program in Holocaust and Genocide Studies. She completed her doctoral work at Temple University where she taught for 10 years before coming to Stockton College.  In 1997, she agreed to stay for 2-3 years to get the MAHG program established. Eight years later,  working with faculty across the College, and colleagues around the world,  she has guided America’s first Master of Arts in Holocaust and Genocide Studies into an internationally recognized program. MAHG is based on the seminar method and provides a stimulating, supportive environment to the teachers and other professionals enrolled in the Program. 

Her experience working with community groups has enabled her to build bridges of inter-faith and inter-departmental cooperation and to develop as well joint programs with varied constituencies in the community. She has crossed the United States and several continents organizing and speaking at conferences, conducting seminars and teacher training programs.

Among her 21 publications are, Liturgies on the Holocaust: An Interfaith Anthology, Women in the Holocaust: Responses, Insights and Perspectives, The Century of Genocide, Confronting The Holocaust: A Mandate for the 21st Century, The Genocidal Mind, The Holocaust: The Uses and Abuses of Knowledge, The Holocaust: Lessons For The Third Generation, and The Holocaust: Religion, Power and the Politics of Resistance. Presently, she is writing a history of Holocaust Education in North America.

When the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC was in formation, she served as a member of the Education Advisory Committee of the United States Holocaust Memorial Council and under Elie Wiesel as a member of the Chairman's Advisory Committee on Education. Presently, she serves as Consultant for Holocaust Studies to Saint Joseph's University in Philadelphia, as Senior Consultant to the Philadelphia Center on the Holocaust, Genocide and Human Rights and as Executive Director of the Annual Scholars’ Conference on the Holocaust and the Churches.

Dr. Littell stresses that integrating interfaith Holocaust Studies into the curriculum and professional ethics is the most positive way to eliminate racial and ethnic intolerance and discrimination, to strengthen ones "caring quotient" and to reaffirm the importance of liberty and responsibility in a democracy.

In her spare time she loves to walk, read and be a soccer/ice hockey Oma to her 7 grandchildren. You can reach Marcie and learn more about the MAHG Program at MAHG@Stockton.edu  or Marcia.Littell@stockton.edu.

It is her firm belief that sustainability of the subject in the curriculum can only be accomplished if we include Holocaust and Genocide Studies as a regular part of the undergraduate and graduate school curriculum, with a degree granting program. Teaching the lessons of the Holocaust, she believes, is our best hope for the 21st Century - for a world without a repeat of the Shoah and without continuing genocides. Integrating Holocaust and tolerance education into the curriculum at every level needs to be taken as a priority by all educators.
