BEING JEWISH ON CAMPUS: KNOW YOUR RIGHTS AND THAT YOU'RE NOT ALONE
Jewish students, like any other group, should be celebrated for the diversity you bring and appreciated for the contributions you make to campus life. Jewish students should feel free to express their full identities without fear while taking full advantage of every opportunity on campus as part of your student experience. You must also have proper recourses, resources and designated representatives to turn to if you experience antisemitism, find yourself excluded or face any other form of harassment or discriminatory behavior.
BE WELL WITH HILLEL
Through a partnership with Jewish Family & Career Services Atlanta, Hillels of Georgia is proud to provide confidential counseling services at no cost to all Georgia college students.
