Emory Hillel Information

Hillel at Emory is the premier student organization for building Jewish life on campus for the 2,500 Jewish undergraduate and graduate students at Emory. Hillel's mission is to enrich the lives of Jewish Emory students so that they may enrich the Jewish people and the world. Our vision is that every Jewish student makes an enduring commitment to Jewish life, and our primary goal is to significantly increase the number of Jewish students who have meaningful Jewish experiences at Emory. Hillel builds community by encouraging participation and involvement among all students and creating a pluralistic, welcoming and inclusive environment. Each year, 2,000 Jewish undergraduates arrive at Emory ready to grow, explore and set the pattern for their adult lives. Hillel's challenge is to engage them during these identity-forming years in meaningful Jewish experiences for college students.
