UW-HILLEL

UW Hillel sets its own policies based on our values, our community, and its traditions. In doing so, we take the history, culture, and teachings of our community to heart. As we do, we also affirm our role and commitment to Jewish life and Judaism, in its totality, and to the idea of life in the Academy of higher learning as guideposts for our work... The UW Hillel Foundation provides a home for more than 4,000 Jewish students attending the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Hillel is a pluralistic organization supporting all of the Jewish movements as authentic expressions of Jewish Life... The Jewish Student Foundation on the campus of the University of Wisconsin was founded as the second Hillel Foundation in the country - holding our first event, an afternoon tea, on September 28th, 1924. Today, we are part of a network of more than three hundred and fifty Hillel Foundations in the United States and throughout the world serving Jewish college students.
