Southern Maine Hillel serves the campuses of USM, UNE, SMCC and MECA. At each campus and in joint programming, Hillel creates a safe and enriching environment for students, staff and faculty who are interested in Jewish life. We offer a Jewish perspective in interfaith dialogues, respond to issues of anti-Semitism, and provide vibrant and dynamic links to the broader Jewish community.
