These are Conservative and Reform style services and include pre and post holiday meals. All other Jewish Holidays during the academic year are celebrated, staffed and programmed in a similar manner. Shabbat Holiday and meals:Provide Kosher meal program and festive holiday and Shabbat meals to students throughout the academic year. We serve nearly 125 students on average for the weekly Friday night Shabbat dinner and provide food for events and activities of our student groups throughout the year.
