Hillel is the central address for serving the Jewish community on campus, as well as offering cultural programs for the community at large. Students are encouraged to participate in community service programs, social action, athletics, social and cultural events, Jewish studies, Birthright Israel, Shabbat, and holiday celebrations. 

This 16,000-square-foot state-of-art facility serves 3,000 Jewish students on the Syracuse University campus and provides programs and services for the Syracuse Jewish community and the community at large. This magnificent three-story building includes a fitness center, multipurpose auditorium (seating capacity of 200), game room and lounge, meeting rooms, administrative and student offices and work areas, library, and supervised kosher dining facility with meat and dairy kitchens. 

Come for services, dinner, or both. Shabbat is an "island in time" a wonderful way to end the week. 

Friday night Shabbat Services during academic year. Candle-lighting at 6 p.m. followed by Conservative and Reform Services. A delicious traditional kosher dinner is served at 7:15 p.m. in the dining room (reservations requested but not required)
