CEI (Community Engagement Interns)

Each Intern is charged with building relationships with Jewish students on campus. Serving as a resource to meaningful opportunities, the engagement interns strive to advance Jewish values in the context of their relationships. Interns strive to understand students' interests, passions, and aspirations, and connect them to opportunities that the students may find meaningful and engaging. Interns plan initiatives that they identify as relevant and Jewish, enable them to meet other students and follow-up with them in an authentic, comfortable, and open way. Contact Ian Solow-Niederman for more information.
