Outdated links to the Reveille

The Reveille switched over the format of its archives, and we haven't updated our links yet. If you are looking for a specific article, search http://www.lsureveille.com by date, title, or subject.

Hillel is looking for Leaders!

...and if you're not one yet, you will be! Ask us about great leadership development and experience that you can use for your resume!

Anyone else want to go to Israel?

If you're Jewish, age 18-26, and have never been on a peer-group trip to Israel, Hillel offers the best ways for you to have the time of your life in Israel.

Taglit-Birthright Israel: Hillel wants to send you on a FREE 10-day peer trip to Israel. The trip will occur during Winter Break 2008-2009. Please discuss this issue with your parents, and pass along any questions you have.

To register, go to www.freeisraeltrip.org. Registration begins September 10th and will end in the next month!

You can also join the group I Want to Go to Israel With Hillel at LSU! on Facebook!

We now have a listserv! If you would like to receive emails from us reminding you of events, please send an email to LISTSERV@LISTSERV.LSU.EDU with:
