[[File:Hillelbuilding.jpg|thumb|240px|The Kraft Center for Jewish Life, home of Hillel]]

'''Columbia/Barnard Hillel''' is a student group that exists to promote Jewish life on campus. Hillel is in the [[Kraft Center]] on 115th & Broadway. There are 1,500 [[Columbia]] and [[Barnard]] students who are actively engaged in Jewish life on campus. Hillel sponsors a wide variety of programs; specific programmatic areas include: social, religious, cultural, social justice, educational, interfaith and pro-Israel.

==Student Life at Hillel==
Acting as an umbrella for Jewish life under the [[Student Governing Board]], Hillel is comprised of 26 constituent student groups and countless supplemental initiatives. One such initiative is Jewish Life Orientation (or JelLO) which takes place immediately after [[NSOP]] at the beginning of each Fall semester and includes programming intended to help incoming students find their place in the Jewish community. Hillel is also an active programming location during [[Senior Week]] at the end of each Spring semester.

==Programming at Hillel==
In addition to weekly religious programming and holiday programming, Hillel has several unique events and initiatives. Every Fall semester, often in Low Library, the social/cultural committee sponsors Hillel Formal. This dance is co-sponsored by a multitude of campus groups and organizations. During finals each semester, Hillel hosts "Butler Smells, Come to Hillel." The Hillel building is transformed into a multiplicity of study spaces, from social to silent, with consistently replenished snacks and reservable group-study rooms.

==Dining at Hillel==
In addition to food served by groups at their events, Hillel offers several dining options:
[[Cafe Nana]] is a restaurant on the 2nd floor of Hillel open Sunday-Thursday that serves Middle Eastern and Italian fare.
[[Kraft Shabbat Dinner]] is a weekly Shabbat dinner that takes place on the 5th floor of the Kraft Center every Friday. The heavily subsidized meal costs $5.
[[Hewitt Shabbat Meals]] are coordinated by Hillel and provided by Barnard dining services. These traditional Friday dinners and Saturday lunches take place in [[Hewitt Dining Hall]].

Hillel sponsors a wide variety of programs; specific programmatic areas include: social, religious, cultural, social justice, educational, interfaith and pro-Israel.

==Student Life at Hillel==
Acting as an umbrella for Jewish life under the [[Student Governing Board]], Hillel is comprised of 26 constituent student groups and countless supplemental initiatives. One such initiative is Jewish Life Orientation (or JelLO) which takes place immediately after [[NSOP]] at the beginning of each Fall semester and includes programming intended to help incoming students find their place in the Jewish community. Hillel is also an active programming location during [[Senior Week]] at the end of each Spring semester.

==Programming at Hillel==
In addition to weekly religious programming and holiday programming, Hillel has several unique events and initiatives. Every Fall semester, often in Low Library, the social/cultural committee sponsors Hillel Formal. This dance is co-sponsored by a multitude of campus groups and organizations. During finals each semester, Hillel hosts "Butler Smells, Come to Hillel." The Hillel building is transformed into a multiplicity of study spaces, from social to silent, with consistently replenished snacks and reservable group-study rooms.

==Dining at Hillel==
In addition to food served by groups at their events, Hillel offers several dining options:
[[Cafe Nana]] is a restaurant on the 2nd floor of Hillel open Sunday-Thursday that serves Middle Eastern and Italian fare.
[[Kraft Shabbat Dinner]] is a weekly Shabbat dinner that takes place on the 5th floor of the Kraft Center every Friday. The heavily subsidized meal costs $5.
[[Hewitt Shabbat Meals]] are coordinated by Hillel and provided by Barnard dining services. These traditional Friday dinners and Saturday lunches take place in [[Hewitt Dining Hall]].
