In addition, we celebrate other holidays here at the University. We have a Hanukkah
party on the first night which includes latkes and the candle lighting and we light the candles
all of the rest of the nights. We do a Purim party with hamentashen and a megillah
reading/storytelling. There is a community seder for Passover as well. In the past,
we have sometimes done a Tu B'Shevat seder. All of these functions are open to everyone!
Please join us during Family Weekend for our annual bagel brunch which is held on the third
floor in the Student Center.
Jody Horwitz has weekly open office hours in the Student Center (Room 326) from 2:00 - 4:00 p.m. on Mondays,
