"Jewish life at Muhlenberg is simply what you make of it. Hillel creates an enviorment of give and take with students on campus so that no matter what kind of background you come from anyone can be as religiously and/or socially involved. My first impression of the Hillel at Muhlenberg when I was a prospective was that it would become a home away from home for me. The staff and students that are always at Hillel helped me fall in love with Muhlenberg my freshman year. Hillel has created such a presense on campus, for Jews and non Jews alike, different than any other small liberal arts school!"

"When looking for a College I knew that a Jewish presence was a necessity. When I visited the Hillel house for the first time I was nervous and a bit skeptical. But after meeting with Patti Mittleman and a few students I was "SOLD" on Muhlenberg’s Hillel. Everyone I met including Patti was very nice and answered all my questions. I have never questioned my decision to come to Muhlenberg in my 2 years as a student here. I know that my experience would not have been even half as great if I hadn't been a part of this Hillel. The people I have met and the times I've spent with them at Hillel are some of my favorite memories of college thus far."

“There is nothing like matzah ball soup and fresh challah on Shabbat, and I knew I would find a strong Jewish community here at Muhlenberg. Muhlenberg Hillel provides not only 24-hour access with a free washer and dryer, but also a warm, friendly atmosphere where Jews can meet and mingle with other Jews (and of course, the free food!)

“I chose Muhlenberg because it continued the same personal and comfortable environment that I grew to love in my Jewish high school, while still offering me opportunities to expand on my learning and skills.”
