Mission Statement

Queens College Hillel seeks to create meaningful Jewish experiences that encourage Jewish students to make an enduring commitment to Jewish life, learning, and Israel.

We envision a world in which every Jewish student makes an enduring commitment to Jewish life.

We seek to achieve this goal by:

• Creating meaningful Jewish experiences to inspire Jewish students
• Engaging students on their own terms, with individual personalities, interests, and passions
• Embracing both the distinctively Jewish and universally human inherent in Judaism
• Connecting community service and civic engagement with Jewish values
• Promoting pluralistic community and constructive dialogue
• Emphasizing exploration, engagement, and education related to the State of Israel as a core part of Jewish life
