What We Do

At Auraria Campus Hillel's home-away-from-home, we offer students many ways to explore their Jewish identities. From Shabbat dinners to holidays and celebrations, fun social programs, Leadership Development, and Jewish learning opportunities, Hillel is at the forefront of cultivating the next generation of Jewish Joy! Here at Hillel, our amazing students are so lucky to take the lead in planning and implementing our programs.

Exploring Jewish texts and traditions

Learning Opportunities

It is for good reason that the Jewish people are called – "People of the Book". Learning is a core value in Judaism, so at our Auraria Hillel, we offer classes that take Jewish learning and make it fun!

Shalom – I say this not only as a "Hello" but also as a wish for peace to you. We live in an ever-changing world of ups and downs and I am grateful to have the opportunity to help you find your way through them in the flow of college. We at Auraria Hillel explore how our ancient Jewish traditions can be applied to the modern world through learning, song, food, and community! As the Director of Jewish Student Life, I am excited to embark on Jewish exploration with the Auraria student body. I look forward to getting to know you, so please reach out! I am only an email, phone call, or text message away from sharing a "shalom."
