Southern Maine Hillel serves students at the following colleges:
- University of Southern Maine (USM)
- University of New England (UNE)
- Southern Maine Community College (SMCC)
- Maine College of Art (MECA)
At each campus, Hillel creates a safe and enriching environment for students 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 for students.
Upcoming Events:
- Passover-Style Dinner at SMCC. Southern Maine Hillel is hosting a Passover-style meal in the Southern Maine Community College Culinary Arts Dining Room. Come enjoy a chametz-free dinner and learn more about the customs of Passover. Doors will open at 5:30 PM, and a full-course dinner will be served at 6:00 PM. RSVP required.
