But if the website is obsolete the Hillel is not being aggressive about letting people know they exist!! So not updating since 2003 is kind of revealing.
i wouldn't necessarily assume this -- obsolete website means they don't have someone willing/able to spend the time it takes to keep it up to date -- they are generally dependent on there being a student volunteer ready and willing to do this. also realize, students may well be using facebook groups to keep their campus population informed -- something that you as an outsider may simply not see.

you don't mention your child's credentials -- state schools will vary greatly in selectivity. binghamton, maryland, deleware, umass amherst have strong hillels. they vary in size and selectivity.
