This issue of the
URJ College Department email is to let you know about programs and
resources available to you and your college students from the Reform movement.
KESHER: From Camp to Campus
This summer the College Department is excited to be piloting a camp
visit program entitled “KESHER: From Camp to Campus.” Several different
URJ camps (including GUCI, Greene, Kutz, Jacobs, and George) will
take part in one to four days of KESHER programming, led either by a
visiting KESHER program associate, or an on-site member of College
Programs team. The programs will target both the college-age staff
members at camp as well as high school incoming 11th and 12th
graders, with the goal of making these audiences aware of the
resources and programs that KESHER offers on campus. Additionally,
we hope to learn more from these groups as to what KESHER can be
doing for them. Should the camp visits prove successful this summer,
we hope to continue them in the future, eventually implementing
valuable and substantive KESHER programming at all of our URJ
camps.
RJ.org
In May the Union for Reform Judaism launched a
new blog — RJ.org: News and Views of Reform Jews that will, we hope,
become a free marketplace of ideas about Judaism and the role it
plays in our lives. The blog is a platform for Reform Jews and those
who care about Judaism to come together to kibbitz and learn in an
online community. Come join the conversation! www.rj.org
