Judaism On Our Own Terms

The Judaism on Our Own Terms Network is a national movement of independent campus Jewish organizations committed to promoting student self-governance and radical inclusivity – both on our individual campuses and in the wider Jewish community. Though we represent a diverse set of communities with various ideologies and missions, we are united by our five principles for Jewish campus life: ? Establish and support democratically-run Jewish campus organizations by and for students within which students have the primary authority to determine leadership structure, and collectively decide rules, programming, and organizational mission. ? Resolve never to jeopardize student needs in the name of donors’ political interests. ? Protect and empower Jewish students facing increasingly common attempts to silence their voices, perspectives, and political opinions — especially regarding Israel/Palestine — by working against attempts to intimidate students. ? Embrace students’ diverse Jewish identities and understandings of “being Jewish” without political litmus tests or assumptions about sexual orientation, gender identity, race, or class. ? Create vibrant Jewish spaces for ritual, discourse, and engagement with social justice issues, along with mechanisms for these spaces to share resources and support one another. Current JOOOT campus groups include: UC Davis Jewish Student Union, Occidental College Jewish Student Union, Bryn Mawr & Haverford’s Bi-Co Jews for Inclusion, Tufts University AltJ, Clark University JGAF, Jewish Students of Carleton College (JSC), Brown University Friday Night Jews, Nishmat at the Claremont Colleges, Smith College Jewish Community, Grinnell College Chalutzim, Northwestern Jewish Progressive Alliance, Princeton’s Alliance of Jewish Progressives, Progressive Jewish Alliance of Harvard Law School.
