The Meor Mission

Meor Northwestern is a campus-based organization dedicated to extending Jewish learning opportunities to the broadest spectrum of Jewish students at Northwestern University. Through timely classes, lively discussions, transformative trips and other programming, our goal is to inspire a life-long love affair with Jewish learning and living. Further, we encourage the development of a vibrant, tolerant campus community in which every Jew is welcomed and valued.

Meor Northwestern recognizes that Jewish growth is a perpetual process, and that each student, emerging from his or her unique Jewish background, must develop at his or her own pace. We are committed to offering guidance and opportunities at each step of a student’s personal Jewish journey.
