Hillel Next Week
Shalom,
Next week, November 9, is Kristallnacht, Night of Broken Glass, the day in
Holocaust history that commemorates the November 9, 1938 anti-Jewish riots
that destroyed the synagogues, Jewish shops and homes throughout Germany
and Austria. We have invited a survivor of Kristallnacht to be our guest
and share his story at 4 PM on NOVEMBER 9. The details follow.
Next week Hillel is sponsoring a program Monday-Friday from special
programs for Hunger Week, the 2nd session of our Latin Dance Class,
Kristallnacht, and on Friday - the final Shabbat dinner of the semester.

Fwd: Personal Statement Workshop
Attention Pre-Health Students:
All health professional schools require applicants to submit a Personal
Statement. In fields with national application services like medicine,
committees may read this long before they receive letters of evaluation
and supplemental materials. With limited opportunity to discuss one's
motivation for a specific care in the health professions, the personal
statement can be crucial to one's candidacy.
The Pre-Health Professions Office will be hosting a workshop to discuss
the do's and don'ts of writing a personal statement:
Monday, November 6, 5:00-6:00 pm, Damen Hall 735
Thursday, November 9, 5:00-6:00 pm, Damen Hall 735
Similar information will be covered in each workshop, thus it is only
necessary to attend one.
Don't miss this wonderful opportunity!

Hillel Next Week
Shalom,
This Hillel listserve email includes an announcement about our special
program on Monday, the last in our "real Israel" lecture series; a request
to please help serve food on Tuesday at Chicago's only kosher soup
kitchen, The Uptown Cafe; the Hillel Latin Dance class on Wednesday; the
details about next Saturday night's citywide Hillel band concert/dance party
at the UIC Student Union featuring Israel's hottest musician, Ivri Lider;
and a few job opportunities that have been sent to Hillel.
MONDAY, OCTOBER 30 - NOON - HUSSEY LOUNGE/DAMEN HALL-10TH FLOOR - ISRAELI
LUNCH WILL BE SERVVED
"CONSTRUCTING RELATIONS: An in-depth look at the relationship between
Israel and the Middle East and how it impacts the global community"
A lecture by Professor Jonathan Adelman, University of Denver, Graduate
School of International Studies
Dr. Adelman was the doctoral dissertation advisor to Condoleezza Rice, has
been a speaker for our State Department, and has appeared nationally as a
commentator on Mideast affairs both on television and on the radio.
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 31 - MEET AT 5:00 PM AT HILLEL - PLEASE HELP SERVE AT THE
"UPTOWN CAFE" - 909 W. WILSON (WE NEED TO BE THERE AT 5:30 PM)
The "Uptown Cafe" located in Uptown is Chicago's only kosher soup kitchen.
It serves food in a very special way. Each of the volunteers are waiters
and waitresses in a cafe setting, where those coming to eat are treated as
restaurant guests. The only thing they do not get is a check at the end
of the meal.
The volunteers each get aprons, notepads and menu options. In the world
outside the Cafe, most of these patrons have few choices. In the Cafe
they are guests who can order from the menu offerings.
The "Uptown Cafe" is a project of the Jewish community's Project Ezra
(from the Hebrew word "help") but the guests who come to eat are not all
Jewish and reflect the diversity of the poverty in Uptown. This is a very
special experience. The Cafe needs Hillel's assistance, because it is
Halloween and they are short of volunteers.
If you can help on Tuesday, you can come to Hillel to get a ride at 5 PM
or you can drive yourself and meet at the Cafe at 5:30 PM.
If you can volunteer at the Uptown Cafe on Tuesday, sign up in Hillel or
email Patti Ray at pray@luc.edu.
