Jewish Bearcat of the Week

Featuring Benji Hoff

What is your major, and why did you decide to pursue this degree?
I'm majoring in PPL (politics, philosophy, and law). I chose this major because I wanted a broad background in political science and thought and economics.

Why did you choose Binghamton University?
I chose Binghamton because it had a large Jewish community, it was close to home, and it has strong academics.

Where are you from? Where did you go to high school?
I'm from Stamford, CT and I went to SAR High School.

What do you love about Jewish life on campus?
The best part of Jewish life on campus is walking around the dorms on Shabbas and seeing half my floor going to chabad for dinner.

Do you have any siblings?
I have a 16 year old brother and an 11 year old brother.

What is your favorite Jewish food?
My favorite Jewish food has gotta be matzah ball soup.

What is your favorite food?
Favorite non-Jewish food is pizza.

What is your favorite Jewish childhood memory?
My favorite Jewish childhood memory is my bris.

What is your favorite Chabad experience?
My favorite Chabad experience is Kabbalat Shabbat.
