Israel is one of the many ways we at Hillel Milwaukee connect with Judaism, community and faith. We view Israel as a core element of Jewish life and a gateway to Jewish identity for students.
Hillel is steadfastly committed to the support of Israel and therefore promotes a continuum of experiences to engage students with Israel, educate their campus communities about Israel, and advocate for Israel as a Jewish and democratic state in peace and security.
We believe it is very important for students and faculty to have a strong involvement and relationship with Israel. Because of that, Hillel Milwaukee offers many different opportunities to get involved with Israel in order to expand our connection to a country that has given us so much. Through student organizations, leadership opportunities, internships, a variety of programs, alternative spring break trips and Birthright Israel, there are infinite ways to build a relationship with Israel.
We welcome diverse student perspectives on Israel, and we strive to create an inclusive, pluralistic community where students can discuss matters of interest and/or concern about Israel. We encourage students' curiosity as they explore their relationship with Israel. We object to labeling, excluding or harassing any students for their beliefs and expressions. As an indispensable partner to all Milwaukee’s universities, Hillel seeks to facilitate civil discourse about Israel in a safe and supportive college environment that is open for dialogue and learning.
We believe that the best way of bringing Israel to campus is to strengthen the conversation and by creating interesting educational programs that will introduce the students to the different aspects of Israel’s culture, politics, diversity and so much more.
Examples of previous Israel programming and events are:
