"hillel_desc": "FSU is home to nearly 4000 Jewish students. Hillel at FSU and the members of the Jewish Council, which Hillel supports, provide diverse opportunities for making Jewish choices while being a student at FSU. FSU is proud to offer a study n Israel option through their world-class Study Abroad Program office. One out of every five FSU students participates in Greek life---as a result, Hillel partners with AEPI, SDT and other Greeks to be Greek and Jewish. Jews participate in student government through several registered student organizations (RSOs): `Noles for Israel, the Maimonidies Society, Jewis Law Students Association and other emerging groups. Hillel supports all expressions of Jewish life on campus and offers an environment in which Jewish students can create the type of Jewish life they wish to have at FSU. Where once students came in order to hide their identity, now FSU is a place of Jewish pride. Come be a member of the tribe and be a Seminole, too!",
