Campuses We Serve
HCNE provides an on-campus presence with staff and programming to campuses with small Jewish populations. On Hillel Council campuses, students feel like they have a safe space in a Jewish home that is open, pluralistic and inclusive for all. Our advisors also provide spiritual guidance in a warm and welcoming environment. HCNE works within the framework of Spiritual Life and Student Life on the campuses we serve to maximize the success of Jewish life on campus.
