Student Groups and Programs

Association of Jewish Students
The Association of Jewish Students provides a wide variety of social, educational, community service, religious and cultural programming for the Miami University community. The Association of Jewish Students designs programming with a focus on deepening the understanding of Jewish life and Jewish issues within our campus.
Our organization sponsors Jewish holiday celebrations including weekly Shabbat services followed by a home cooked dinner, High Holiday services, and Passover Seders and kosher for Passover meals. One of the main aspects of our mission is to ensure that all students on campus may express their identity freely. There is no one way to be Jewish at Miami. Jews at Miami are cultural, secular, Reform, Reconstructionist, Conservative, Orthodox and questioning.
