ASB: Alternative Spring Break
Several of our Miami Students have just returned from a different type of spring break experience. During the week of March 9th, students traveled down to New Orleans where they spent their break rebuilding the infrastructe that was destroyed by Hurricain Katrina. In the coming days we will have some personal journal entries and photos to share with you about this amazing experience.

JNF Israel Trip:
Others from Miami spent their spring break in Israel helping to rebuild areas destroyed by hamas rockets and warfare within the middle east region. These students has a great oppurtunity to make a difference in the world and again in the coming days pictures and personal experiences will posted for all to see.

I hope that everyone has a meaningful break and is ready to get back in the swing of things here on campus. We hope to see you out at some of the exciting programming that is being offered and feel free to contact us with anything you would like to see within the MIAMI JEWISH STUDENT blog; afterall it is about you.

Best of luck in the coming weeks,
