On Monday, December 2, join us in Chicago for an interactive session and discussion with educator Rebecca Voorwinde, CEO of The Bronfman Fellowship, on how Positive Pluralism can improve campus life for Jewish students in this deeply polarized time.

This event is open to the public; please share with family, friends, educators, and other members of your community. Together, we’ll explore timely questions such as: What does it feel like to be a Jewish college student today? What is Positive Pluralism, and how can it be fostered on campus? What can Jewish wisdom teach us about living in a shared society? What does society most need from our educational institutions today? Learn more about The Bronfman Fellowship’s exciting new initiative, Campus Commons: Building Bridges with Jewish Wisdom, a free leadership program that empowers college students to use Jewish wisdom to foster meaningful dialogue and build relationships between diverse groups of people, on campus and beyond. The program includes a three-day, in-person seminar; dynamic Zoom sessions for learning and reflection; and mentorship on how participants can bring back what they’re learning to their campuses. Campus Commons participants will continue to role model pluralism in all the settings they engage in: their workplace, their Jewish community, and beyond. #BronfmanFellowship #Bronfmanim #CampusCommons #pluralism #positivepluralism #Jewish #JewishLife #JewishCollegeStudents #CampusLife #JewishEducators #Chicago
