UNC Chapel Hill

Campus Life

UNC-CH is a vibrant campus buzzing with students and their passions. Students have truly integrated every aspect of campus into student life. On days with beautiful weather, of which there are many, you find students laying on the quad reading or taking a nap. Every weekday many of the over 750 student groups are in the pit, engaging others by selling tickets, performing, or raising awareness of a social justice issue. There is something for everyone on this campus. Whether you are the hard core soccer player or the dedicated writer, you will find a niche for you on this campus.  

Students at UNC-CH are from all over the nation and the world. We pride ourselves on both our national and our global reputation and this mindset holds true for the student body. Many of the students here study abroad as well as participate in humanitarian efforts. We pride ourselves not only on our winning athletics but our commitment to excellence in academics as well. Virtually every division of academics here is ranked nationally, if not the best. 

Hillel isn't a club to join, but rather a connection to explore. Students create programming reflective of their Jewish identity or of their exploration of that identity. Significantly, Hillel is an open community; if there is anything that you would like to see or to do during your time here, Hillel can partner with you to make it happen. The community is formed by student ideas and leadership; it is enriching and enriched by the initiatives of the many involved students. It is yours to own and build or just to partake of; student involvement can be central, in policy decisions or programming, or it can be simply occasional attendance.
