s the beginning of each month
rounds the corner, the
first Sunday now means that
Bagel Brunch is in the "shmear" future.
On Sunday, Oct. 6, hundreds of students
piled in the front doors as University of
Michigan Hillel held its first-ever Bagel
Brunch. Hillel's Governing Board created this
event for students to get to know each other
and to nosh on bagels and lox in a relaxing
environment. Hillel student leaders wanted
to create a welcoming, communal experience
in addition to Shabbat, which already draws
more than 300 people each week for Friday
night dinner.
To promote the event, the Governing
Board created a #schmear Twitter cam-
paign and put up posters all over campus.
According to senior Rebecca Grossman of
Oak Park, the brunch was originally planned
for 150 students, but many more attended.
At the second brunch on Nov. 3, a Magen
David Adom (MDA) ambulance was parked
in front of Hillel. The ambulance is being
donated in honor of Michigan college stu-
dents who have volunteered with MDA in
Israel.
Current U-M students who have been
MDA volunteers were at the brunch to talk
about their experiences working on an
ambulance in Israel over the summer. After
stopping in Ann Arbor, the ambulance is
going to make its way to Detroit's partner-
ship city — Migdal HaEmek in Israel.
In addition to learning about MDA,
students from MEDx, U-M Hillel's pre-med
group, were promoting the Blood Battle, a
competition between U-M and Ohio State
University to see who can raise the most
pints of blood for the Red Cross. @

Ann Arbor. Additional reporting came from
junior Eden Adler of Farmington Hills.
