NEW! Hot Kosher Dinners @ University Dining!
Chabad is proud to announce for the first time ever at U of I, fresh kosher dinners will be served at university dining halls! These meals can be purchased with i-card credits, as part of the university meal plan.
Rabbi Dovid Techtel has been working with the university dining for over a year and a half to make this happen. "This is a major breakthrough for Jewish life on campus," says Rabbi Tiechtel, director of Chabad at U of I, "this is an issue students and parents have been asking me about since I first moved here three and a half years ago. And now it's finally happening."
