Announcements/Events:

Special Note about Reminders

The Hillel Blitz account will no longer be sending out weekly reminder blitzes about Monday meetings or Jews and Java. You should assume both are happening unless the Jewsletter or a blitz tells you otherwise. Remember, Monday meetings are usually at the Roth Center on Mondays, 6pm for Board (open to everyone though!) and 7pm for General Meetings. Jews and Java is usually 3-5 at the Barnes and Noble Book Store on Wednesdays.

Election for Summer and Fall/Winter Executive Hillel Board Positions

Hillel will be holding elections for President and three VP positions at the general meeting on Monday April 23rd at 7 pm. There will be a separate set of elections for Summer term and Fall-Winter terms. You ARE eligible to run for a Fall-Winter position if you expect not be on-campus one of the terms, but you should disclose that fact before the election. The officers to be elected on April 23rd are: President, Executive Vice President/Programming Chair, Vice President of Membership, and Vice President of Religious Affairs and Education.

Of the week….

JEWS and GOYS OF THE WEEK

Everyone who helped out with the many Seders over the weekend deserves the honor of being one of the Jews/Goys of the week. I would like to give an especially loud shout out to Claudia Palmer. She organized most of the details of the Passover Seder, which allowed everyone to be fed and have somewhere to sit.

JOKE OF THE WEEK:

This week’s joke of the week is a music video about the Passover Seder set to the tune of the immortal Miley Cyrus song “Party in the USA.” Although this not nearly as good as the Hillel Musical, this song is pretty catchy and quite funny. A special thanks to Kimi Strauch for the tipoff about the clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCy4-_DaacI
