...may the New -Year be one of joy, happiness Sz prosperity Campus Life has developed a series of programs to attract Jewish students, which are often administered by the Steinhardt fellows: The University of California at San Diego offered an "Alternative Rosh Hashanah." Instead of tradition- al services, students participated in High Holiday workshops that related to various Jewish themes such as envi- ronmentalism, feminism, teshuvah or meditation. * Bryn Mawr and Haverford col- leges sent bags filled with apples and honey to the mailboxes of all Jewish students. Also enclosed in the bag was information about options on campus for the High Holidays, as well as information on what the High Holidays celebrate. - Brown University had an apples- and-honey party on the main quad- rangle after Rosh Hashanah services. This program was designed to provide students a place to socialize after ser- vices ended and allow students who did not attend services a chance to participate in a Jewish activity during the High Holidays. - Indiana University provided its students with an opportunity to "Send a Card Around the World." Tables were set up in dorm rooms for students to send Rosh Hashanah greeting cards to small Jewish com- munities in Africa, Asia or South America. The Hillel campus fellow also went around campus dressed up as Winnie-the-Pooh, distributing honey to students. * The University of Washington in Seattle sponsored a Yom Kippur dis- cussion, to provide a forum for reflec- tion about Yom Kippur for people who do not attend services or observe the holidays in a traditional fashion. College campuses also offer alterna- tives as far as services are concerned: * Services are often held through campus Hillels or Jewish groups. • Many Hillels can work with the neighboring Jewish community to provide tickets to a local synagogue's services. • Campuses often offer home hos- pitality to Jewish students on the High Holidays, This way, students can cele- brate in a family environment that is near school. To make the services more enrich- ing, says Weisman, "bring reading material into the service on either Jewish or holiday themes." That way, students who are bored during the ser- vice can still learn and reflect about things Jewish. ❑ f or all mankind DETROIT JEWISH NEWS N STAFF and their families extend heartiest greetings to the entire Jewish community of Michigan, with gratitude for the splendid cooperation that has enabled us to work together for good community spirit.
