WELCOME BACK ALUMNI!
Since 1948, there has been a Hillel at University of Delaware. Each decade has brought its changes, but each year Jewish life has grown. Now Jewish students from all over the eastern seaboard comprise more than 10% of the student body.
Whether you graduated in 1930 or in 2000, we'd love to hear from you! We wouldn't be the strong, vibrant Jewish community on campus that we are, if we weren't standing on the shoulders of those who came before.
Check back for information on our alumni brunch soon!

ALUMNI SPOTLIGHT
Jason & Anya Glassner '11
Jason and Anya Glassner are two UD alumni who found a home, leadership opportunities, and love, at Hillel. They caught a glimpse of each other at Shabbat dinner and have been happily together ever since! They both appreciated the opportunity to be surrounded by those with similar values as them, and took advantage of their new Jewish environment. Now married, Anya and Jason both continue to maintain an active Jewish life and stay connected to their Hillel friends. They value the connection that Judaism gives them to others, and carry that as they are start their post - graduate lives!
