Hillel at Texas A&M Kicks Off  Spring Semester with a Bang   

The spring semester at Texas A&M Hillel is off to a snowy start. Following a successful “Welcome Back Breakfast for Dinner” bash, Aggie Hillel has a packed schedule of exciting events planned.  

“I’m excited by the events that the Student Board has planned for this semester,” Hillel at Texas A&M Executive Director Risa Bierman said. “From community service projects to engaging Israel programming and, of course, plenty of opportunities for fun, there’s something for everyone.”  

Texas A&M Hillel is offering new programs this semester to engage new and current students in a variety of ways. This includes the Hillel Book Club, a student-led initiative that provides students with an opportunity to read books in a wide range of genres and come together to engage in meaningful discussions.  

The Senior Support program ensures that Texas A&M Hillel is recognizing the importance of continued Jewish engagement beyond college. Through this unique program, Hillel is creating valuable resources for graduating seniors to help them navigate their post-collegiate Jewish journey.  

Aggie Israel Fair on April 7 is an on-campus event that will showcase Israeli culture and foster a deeper understanding of Israel among the student body.  

In addition, Hillel remains committed to community service, with various opportunities for students to give back to the local community and make a positive impact.  

Texas A&M has a strong Jewish community that enriches the students and fosters a strong sense of community. Aggie Hillel encourages all students to get involved and experience the vibrant and welcoming atmosphere at Texas A&M Hillel at College Station.
