OUR HISTORY
Among the thousands of college students who flock to Israel each
year for study or travel, many are looking for a reason to be Jewish.
But it isn't easy to tap into Israel's vast world of Jewish learning.
It isn't easy for a student from New York or Philadelphia to look
beyond the stones of the Western Wall and sense their history.
Jeff Seidel and the Jewish Student Information Centers fill that
need.
The Old City Center opened in 1986, functioning as a resource center
for the student traveler as a guiding hand and a place offering
heightened Jewish consciousness.
The second
Student
Information Center opened in 1992 near the Hebrew University
campus offering its students an array of services such as laundry
service, e-mail, Shabbat meals, lectures, wide screen Television
and much more.
The third Information
Center opened in 1994 near the Tel-Aviv University campus. Yearly,
the Jewish Student Information Centers are visited by some 20,000
students and travelers. On Friday night you are now able to attend
Shabbat Home Hospitality whether you are at the Western Wall, Tel
Aviv University, Hebrew University, or anywhere around the world.
The Jewish Student Information Centers is a non-profit, tax-deductible
organization. It relies solely on private contributions. You can
