Welcome to UConn Hillel

UConn Hillel is the Foundation for Jewish Campus Life here in Storrs. With committed students and staff, we aim to provide both unique and meaningful opportunities for Jewish students on campus as well as in the greater community.

Hillel's mission is to enrich the lives of Jewish undergraduate and graduate students so that they may enrich the Jewish people and the world.

In order to help achieve this mission we offer programming in areas like Jewish Education, social programs, social action (tzedek) programs, and so much more. Some of the highlights we've had in the past years include our world famous Welcome Back BBQ, a comedy night with noted producer/writer Andy Borowitz (Fresh Prince of Bel Air) as well as being a pioneer in the University wide Month of Kindness. Our Hillel is governed by a group of wonderful students and lay leaders.
