Jewish U is the place for you to learn more about your heritage and to further your understanding of core values in classes given by Rabbi Shmuli and other members of the Chabad community.
What is Jewish U?
Jewish U is a supplemental Jewish education program run by Chabad. It offers a variety of classes centered around Judaism but they can be about anything.
Classes are 4 weeks long (unless otherwise specified) and offers 4 Jewish U credit per class that can be redeemed for cash, trips or Judaica.
You can take as many or as few classes as you wish. The only requirements are that you are Jewish and a Pitt Student.
