Closing the Semester at Hillel 818

As this semester comes to a close, I'm feeling incredibly grateful for the moments that made Hillel 818 feel like home: From Hillel Island, to JLF sessions, to Shabbat and holidays, to snacks, Cafe Ivirt, seeing you all on campus, and more, this semester has been one to remember. 

This semester was shaped by curiosity, resilience, and a strong sense of community, and it’s been inspiring to watch friendships grow and Jewish life come alive on all of our campuses in so many different ways.

As we head into winter break, I hope everyone finds time to rest, recharge, and spend meaningful moments with the people who matter most. Wishing you a warm, restful break and a happy, healthy new year! We can’t wait to be back together next semester!
