About Loyola Marymount University
The Office of Jewish Student Life is a nexus for Jewish life on LMU’s campus, committed to building and strengthening the Jewish community through religious, cultural, intellectual and social justice programming. Working closely with the student club Hillel, with the Jewish Studies Program, with Campus Ministry and Student Affairs, Jewish Student Services provides opportunities for connection and growth.Â
While creating a community in which Jewish students can celebrate their Jewish identity, Jewish Student Life also seeks to build bridges between all faith-based communities at LMU through formal and informal opportunities for interfaith dialogue and cross-cultural exchange. Jewish life at LMU is an integrated part of LMU's diverse tapestry of faiths and cultures. Holidays and rituals are celebrated widely across the campus and by all members of the LMU community.
