It’s an electrifying sight: well over 1300 collegiates gathered in one room to celebrate Shabbat. Weeks of planning and hard work on the part of dozens of students paid off as BU once again maintained its record and gathered the largest group of Jews in one Shabbat celebration. The program included a capella selections by BU’s Kaskeset and Maryland’s Rak Shalom, inspiring words by Rabbi Dov Greenberg, Kiddush, Hamotzi and a traditional Shabbat dinner spiced with song and a feeling of communal belonging and Jewish pride. The program was spearheaded by Chabad and co-sponsored and organized with Hillel. The Jewish student leadership and community at BU rocks! Video by L. Brown |
