What’s it like to celebrate Jewish holidays on campus?
Hillel usually gathers for all major Jewish holidays. We carpool to High Holiday services at NC-Hillel in Chapel Hill or at Temple Emanuel (Reform) or Beth David (Conservative) in Greensboro. For Passover, we have both a seder and a few meals together. We know it’s hard to be away from home during the holidays, so we try to create that family feeling here on campus with our own traditions for Break the Fast, Sukkot, Tu B’Shvat, Hanukkah, Purim, Yom Hashoah, and more.
