The Emory Jewish Life Fund supports Jewish life, culture, and learning on campus. We offer a connection for our Jewish life affiliates–Hillel, Chabad and Meor–to Emory's administration and campus programming. We advocate for the needs of Jewish students when they encounter challenges on Emory's campus. Finally, we seek to ensure that Emory remains the home to an active, inclusive and vibrant Jewish university community.
Jewish Life programming from the Office of Spiritual and Religious life is growing and will continue to supplement the wonderful offerings from our Jewish life partners. Whether this means a campus-wide Chanukah celebration, special High Holy Day services, or an interfaith seder, we will continue to meet students where they are and invite their leadership.
Since 2020 we have been convening a monthly Jewish Life Working Group made up of students, staff, and administrators – all with a stake in supporting Jewish Life at Emory. Our group advocated for a university-wide religious accommodation policy so that students of all faiths are not asked to choose between their academic success and religious observance.
