@whenhen I agree because of Pomona’s selectivity it wouldn’t be mentioned in the Jewish B thread . I still love that thread and get a lot of information from reading the thread.
Hoping with a new hillel director next year that Birthright trips can run again. They haven’t had a birthright trip in years. Hoping to connect with parents/students at Claremont Hillel to encourage Birthright trips every year at Claremont Consortium Hillel. When I called the Hillel they told me they didn’t have enough interest in these trips and kids preferred to go on birthright without their college. Hard to believe with 5 schools they couldn’t get 40 kids every year interested in going on FREE trip to Israel. Although kids can go on birthright without connections to a college its fun to build connections with students from your home school on birthright.
If any Jewish student/parent is interested in trying to form a birthright Hillel trip at Claremont next yr you can post on this thread/and or message me and maybe we can encourage a trip.
Besides birthright the Claremont Hillel FB page /website looks great!
