What is FreshFest?
FreshFest is a pre-orientation program for all incoming students offered by Hillel and coordinated by facilitators. Facilitators are hand-picked upper-class students that staff the FreshFest activities and guide the incoming students as peer mentors. FreshFest involves two days of activities and a special Shabbat at the end of the week at the Winnick Hillel Center for Jewish Life on the Syracuse University Campus.
Why participate in FreshFest?
This program is a great way for incoming students to meet upperclassman and other incoming students before the academic year begins. Incoming students also get better acquainted with the Syracuse University campus and college life, get involved in community service projects, and more! As an added bonus, FreshFest allows for incoming students to move into the residence halls early!
