Mission

 

 

The Brooklyn College Hillel seeks to promote the following core Jewish values by:  

 

  • strengthening Jewish identity among the college's Jewish students

  • sustaining and developing their commitment to Israel 

  • increasing understanding both between Jewish groups and between Jews and others 

  • fostering a climate of tolerance through a pluralistic approach 

  • engaging its students through Jewish learning opportunities, arts, culture, recreation and religious experience 

  • cultivating students’ participation in social action 

  • utilizing the resources of Jewish partner organizations and agencies, as well as those of the city 

Its Board of Trustees supports these efforts by providing financial resources and fiscal, building, and program oversight in conformity with governance standards established by the International Hillel Center.
