Jewish Immersion Journeys
Jewish Immersion Journeys
At ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ, our Jewish experiences are not limited to the university’s beautiful campus. We offer spring break trips and other ways for students to participate in high-impact experiences off campus that enhance their undergraduate Jewish experience.
Hillel Spring Break is ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ Hillel’s off-campus immersive experience, and provides a meaningful and relevant experience of Jewish life elsewhere in the world — from a social justice trip to Los Angeles, to a disaster relief visit to the Caribbean islands, to engaging with refugees through a local resettlement nonprofit.
