You can't read or write a server-side value (session-state) directly from the client-side. Setting a cookie, however, would work (since a cookie can be shared between client and server, and can be manipulated by the client-side code). You may find jquery-cookie useful.

I'm assuming he'll probably want to JSON encode that too... not sure what the proper syntax in 'vanilla' asp.net is, but with MVC3+Razor you'd do something like var session = @Html.Raw(Json.Encode(Session["new"])); i.e., to pass a C# variable into a JS variable.
