Explore Judaism in a way that is meaningful to you.
We are students, staff, and lay leaders dedicated to providing a welcoming, pluralistic, and inclusive atmosphere on campus. Pluralism is always at the core of what we do, and we recognize that there is not just one way to "be Jewish." Students come from diverse backgrounds and beliefs. Our goal is to provide opportunities for students to explore their Judaism in a way that is meaningful to them.

Florida State University is home to nearly 4000 Jewish students. Hillel at FSU and the other strong campus-based Jewish organizations like AIPAC, Mishelanu, Yehudi, and Chabad provide diverse opportunities for making Jewish choices while being a student at FSU. One out of every five FSU students participates in Greek life. In an effort to foster meaningful Jewish connections within these social circles, Hillel partners with fraternities and sororities to empower students to be Greek and Jewish.
