A: Mizzou Hillel has tons of great events throughout the year, from Shabbat services every Friday night to movie nights and more!

Q: How many Jewish students are enrolled at Mizzou?
A: There are approximately 700 undergraduate students at Mizzou.
Q: What does Hillel provide for students on Holidays?
A: All religious services are led by students, with the occasional visit of a student rabbi. Rosh Hashana, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, Simchat Torah, Hannukah, Tu B’Shevat, Purim, Passover and Yom HaShoah and Israel’s Independence Day are celebrated creatively on campus or at Hillel.
Q: How can I communicate with other Jewish students on campus?
A: Get on our mailing list so you can receive information about our events via weekly emails, our monthly calendar, and other mass mailings. Also, keep an eye out for postings in the residence halls, advertisements in The Maneater and around campus.
