Whether you're looking to deepen your Jewish learning, celebrate Shabbat with friends, lead meaningful programs, or simply find your people on campus. Hillel is here for you.

Here’s how you can jump in:

🌟 Come to an Event

From Shabbat dinners to social gatherings, holiday celebrations to volunteering opportunities, we host events all year long that bring Jewish life to campus in fun, inclusive, and meaningful ways.

Our Jewish Learning Experiences are a chance to explore big questions, connect deeply with your peers, and get paid to learn! No prior knowledge needed, just curiosity and an open mind.

💬 Meet 1-on-1 with a Staff Member

We want to get to know you — what you care about, what you're looking for, and how Hillel can help you thrive. Let’s grab coffee or take a walk and dream together.
