5.0 out of 5 stars
For any college bound student from a Jewish home,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jewish U: A Contemporary Guide for the Jewish College Student (Revised Edition) (Paperback)
Jewish U: A Contemporary Guide For The Jewish College Student by Rabbi Scott Aaron (Director of Education at The Bandesi-Bardin Institute) is an indispensable and reliable reference for families and students wanting to enroll in a college or university where they can explore and practice their Judaic faith and heritage. Jewish U covers a variety of pertinent issues including: preparing to leave the parental home; living in a dorm; celebrating High Holy Days away from the family; honoring Shabbat; making friends and preparing for exams (from a Jewish perspective); reconnecting with family and friends during school breaks; the value of a college education and the selection of a major; the ethics of sexual intimacy; the obligation of responsibility; campus-based Passover celebrations; dealing with death while away from home; Shavuot and theological inquiries; even summer jobs and social action. Jewish U is an invaluable, strongly recommended, thoroughly "reader friendly" guide for any college bound student from a Jewish home.
