Rachel Dingman (Milford, PA) wanted it all. She chose to attend Allegheny for the College's diverse opportunities in civic engagement, leadership development and intercollegiate athletics. Rachel has certainly fulfilled her college aspirations: she's the president of both Allegheny's Hillel and philosophy club, she's involved in many philanthropic efforts through her sorority, and Rachel shines as a member of the varsity swim team (and she discovered a new love for playing rugby, too).

Shalom! As Allegheny College's Hillel advisor, I would like to introduce you to our growing organization. This is a student-driven Hillel where students meet every week to coordinate cultural and religious events.
With the support of the Office of Religious Life, Hillel students proudly organize campus-wide celebrations for every Jewish holiday. Additionally, Hillel has invited guest speakers from as far away as Poland and the Netherlands, sponsored performances by comedians from both Jewish and Muslim faiths, and raised money for several community projects.
For many, Hillel is a way to connect with other Jewish students; for others it is now a "home away from home." Every year the number of students who attend our events increases, bringing together not only Jewish students but also other students with different religious and cultural backgrounds.
I am very excited for the programs that Hillel students are planning for the 2008-2009 academic year, and I hope you enjoy learning about Allegheny Hillel.
Sincerely,
Yana Geyfman
Admissions Counselor & Hillel Advisor
