About U. of Vermont

The University of Vermont combines faculty-student relationships most commonly found in a small liberal arts college with the resources of a major research institution. The university is home to 10,192 undergraduates, 1,427 graduate students, 446 medical students and 1,484 full- and part-time faculty. Located in Burlington, Vermont (perennially voted one of America's most exciting small cities), UVM's setting in a valley on the shores of Lake Champlain, between the Adirondack and the Green mountain ranges, inspires visitors and residents.

Leadership is central to UVM Hillel`s work. Students plan most of Hillel`s activities giving them a chance to gain lifelong leadership skills. Participation in national and international leadership conferences and Jewish immersion trips is highly encouraged as an important part of the Jewish college experience.
