Friends, Food, and Torah
The Jewish Learning Fellowship is the #1 way to plug into Jewish life at UCLA. The Fellowship is a 10-week conversational seminar on a new Big Question each week. Cohorts of Fellows meet weekly with a staff educator share a meal, dive deep into a particular topic, and get to know one another. Upon completion, each Fellow will receive a $250 stipend.
