Hillel/JSA - Political Program Hello everyone, Enclosed, please find a new version of the application for this high level political engagement program. It was circulated in Ottawa at the conference, and there are already a number of applicants. Space is limited to about a total of 30, so we will be vetting the applicants. After a series of conference calls on subjects described on the application, the successful applicants will convene in Ottawa in late February or Early March for a conference where they will be introduced to the "tachlis" side of Ottawa, including lobbyists, EA's Ministerial assistants, journalists, and a politician or two. Canada-Israel Congress will be assisting our most promising participants in securing internships on the Hill next summer, and National Jewish Campus Life will also be providing a Fellowship grant to those who demonstrate ongoing involvement in engagement, student government, and youth wing development in national parties on their campuses. All party affiliations are welcomed and encouraged. Arieh S. Rosenblum Director, Israel Affairs National Jewish Campus Life arosenblum(a)uiafed.org office: 416-636-7655 x251 cell: 416 460-1373

[Hillel/JSA] ONE Weekend Experience
by Gadi Glogowski 04 Nov '04

04 Nov '04

Hillel/JSA - ONE Weekend Update Hello All! We would like to tell you about this major event coming up. From Thursday January 20th to Sunday January 23rd there will be the ONE weekend in Montreal. "ONE is a weekend opportunity for Jewish University students around the country to unite together in Montreal to share an experience of a lifetime. We have called our gathering ONE as it represents the idea that we are all one nation, of one heart, with one god, we have one religion, one land, and one heritage. Furthermore participants are all ONE in that they are Jewish Canadian University students and are connected by this shared identity and reality, and are forever joined by the nature of their experiences. This weekend will be a combination of educational and inspirational activities as well as fun and social events. We have renowned speakers and leaders in areas of Judaism, feminism, unity, Israel, politics, not-for-profit organizations etc. joining us for the weekend. As well we will have an exciting party of hundreds and hundreds of Jewish university students in the heart of downtown Montreal." The itinerary is still being ironed out but the National Jewish Campus Life has begun booking speakers and entertainment. While nothing is set in stone here is some pertinent information as we have it now: Cost - Students staying in the hotel will pay $150. Students not sleeping in the hotel will pay slightly discounted price. Other than that NJCL will be covering all costs except airfare. Hillel/JSA Winnipeg will provide some subsidies (this info will be more accurate once we know how many people are interested in going). In terms of registration NJCL is currently putting together a website, registration will be online. As soon as registration opens up we will let you know. If you are interested in going please let Gadi know ASAP by emailing gadig(a)shaw.ca Hillel/JSA Executive Board
