‫ברוכים הבאים‬ Welcome!

HILLEL OPENED UP DOORS TO ME AND MY JEWISH “ ...HARVARD IDENTITY I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW NEEDED TO BE OPENED.”

MICHAEL JASPER ’20

It’s not just on Shabbat, or during our packed Freshman Kickoff Week. Students find a warm welcome at Harvard Hillel all throughout the year. And more, newcomers very swiftly find themselves taking part in extending and expanding the tradition of welcome that is the heart of Harvard Hillel.

INROADS FOR ALL

Whether through religious life, cultural activities, learning, or engagement with Israel, students quickly find that there are many ways of taking part in this special community. Our students, student leaders, and dedicated professional team are constantly interested in supporting new programs that expand the scope of Harvard Hillel and in reaching out to partner with other student groups throughout Harvard.

ROOTED IN HARVARD

Harvard Hillel is deeply rooted in the life and history of Harvard itself. Our community constantly renews itself and is the legacy of many Harvard generations. Our particular Harvard Hillel traditions are not imports or overlays; they have been shaped here by students creating Jewish life together. We are constantly innovating and evolving. To become part of Harvard Hillel is to take part in an ancient, yet ever-new Jewish tradition and in an exciting aspect of Harvard student life.

CONFIDENCE

Through Harvard Hillel, students shape Jewish lives that are authentically their own, deepening identities and commitments they bring with them to Harvard while exploring Jewish heritage, knowledge, and culture, enriching their Jewish lives in new ways. By learning to author their own Jewish community together here at Harvard, and through sharing this community proudly with peers and friends, our students take vital steps toward lifetimes of confidently creating Jewish life.

Harvard Hillel has by far been one of the most welcoming groups on campus “since I arrived. During my time at Harvard, Hillel has been incredibly supportive and welcoming. I have so enjoyed the time I’ve spent at Hillel so far.”

SARAH SHAMOON ’21

I came to Hillel with no real plans “except going on Birthright, and

ended up drawn into the community.

When Birthright itself came along, Harvard Hillel opened up doors to me and my Jewish identity I didn’t even know needed to be opened.”

THE SLOANE JEWISH HOUSE LIFE FELLOWS PROGRAM

We are especially grateful that our Sloane House Life Fellows program is fully up and running, named by Toby Sloane for our late Board of Directors Chair and HBS Arbuckle Professor Carl Sloane, of blessed memory. Our Sloane Fellows lead students in forging Jewish life in all of Harvard’s undergraduate Houses and connecting House life with the life of Harvard Hillel. In the Yard, our new Freshman Fellows welcome the newest Harvard students and foster Jewish community among them throughout the year.

THE WILLIAM AND EDNA (z”l) SILVERMAN FRESHMAN WEEK

It is deeply meaningful that the programming for our newest Harvard students, our freshmen, now bears the names of two of Harvard Hillel’s most veteran supporters. In gratitude, we share the success of our Freshman Week with Bill Silverman of Hanover, New Hampshire, who takes great interest and delight in the life of Harvard Hillel—and we mourn with Bill the passing of his wife of seventy-two years, Edna Morrison Silverman, whose memory is a blessing.

THE KEIDAN FAMILY COMMONS FOR JEWISH LIFE

The Keidan Family Commons for Jewish Life has transformed the ground floor of Rosovsky Hall— and student life as well. Students find a more open, welcoming, and social atmosphere as they enter Harvard Hillel and stay between activities and long into the evening. We are grateful to David and Georgia Keidan and family for making this possible; we are also grateful to Drs. Jim and Melinda Rabb for sponsoring the Rabb Family Student Center within the ground floor commons.

After spending a transformative gap year in Israel, I was concerned about the transition to “college.

Harvard Hillel quickly became a home for me... and the Hillel community has become like family throughout my four years of college.”
