About The Position
Make your mark on Jewish student life by joining Illini Hillel at UIUC as the Springboard Fellow. You will build one on one relationships with students, plan and execute engaging events and programs around campus, and help inspire students to make a commitment to Jewish life. Under the supervision of the Engagement Director of Cohen Hillel Center, the Springboard Fellow-Engagement Associate will focus on outreach, engagement and empowerment of uninvolved students and will work to connect them to Jewish opportunities in Champaign-Urbana. The fellow will create a Jewish Student Network on campus, as a group outside of Hillel, to engage students without the stigma and preconceived notions of Hillel. We have an estimated 3,000 Jewish students at the University of Illinois and there is not a one size fits all approach for how we can reach them all. You will have the chance to learn from what works, build connections between students and have the opportunity to develop meaningful Jewish experiences. You'll wake up each day (or at least most) and be genuinely excited and enthusiastic about creating an inviting place that inspires students to explore, experience, and create vibrant Jewish lives. This is so much more than your average 9-to-5.
