On Friday, April 3rd, KU Hillel will host its annual Seder at 6:00pm in Alderson Auditorium on the 4th floor of the Kansas Union. Reservations can be made at www.kansas.hillel.org. The cost per person is $18. The KU Hillel Seder will be led in a collaborative effort by students and KU Hillel’s Executive Director, Jay Lewis.
Students are attracted to many KU Hillel events for good food and to feel part of a community. For students who can’t go home for Passover, KU Hillel’s Seder is especially important. “It’s such a significant holiday for so many people,” explains Melissa Kingston, KU Hillel’s Program Director. “Everyone has their tradition, and it’s often an important time for family.”

The event is put on particularly with students who might be spending their first Passover away from family in mind. KU Hillel wants to make sure that all Jewish students have a place to go on Passover where they feel just as welcome as they would at home.
Beyond providing a place for students to go on the first night of Passover, KU Hillel will be open for all Jewish students for the duration of Passover. In an effort to make the holiday as stress-free as possible, KU Hillel will be stocking up on matzah and Kosher-for-Passover snacks. Students are invited to pick up a box of matzah at the downtown location at 7th and New Hampshire to prepare for the holiday week.
