Welcome
back to Santa Barbara Hillel!
In May 2001 we completed an 8 year process with the
opening of the beautiful 10,000 square foot Milton Roisman Jewish
Student Center. In the last two and a half years we have seen
an explosion of Jewish student activity on campus. Our Friday
night Shabbat services and dinner now average over 150 students
per week (some weeks there are over 200 students)! We have 75-100
students here every Monday night for our social Kosher Cook Out.
Throughout the week students are here studying, going to meetings
(like American Students for Israel), rehearsing for the Vocal Ensemble,
Israeli Dancing, learning Sign Language, studying Talmud or just
hanging out. And that's just in an average week! The
students put on programs that range from large social gatherings
like bringing in comedians or musicians, to religious programs like
Shabbat, to political events, to educational programs and everything
in between. If you haven't been back here recently, we welcome
you to come take a look. It is truly amazing. And even
if you're a recent graduate, come see how we continue to grow and
change. As alumni, your hard work and dedication laid the foundation
for the current flourishing of Jewish student life in Santa Barbara.
Come on back and see what you have been a part of producing!
