Break is time to learn more Torah
By Rabbi Mendel Gordon
College break is when a lot of guys like to go on vacation and have fun. For a group of FGCU students, break is an opportunity to learn more Torah.
We had an amazing visit at the Yeshiva Torah Ohr, a Yeshiva for college students in Miami.

Preston Cohen, Mendel Gordon, Matt Boggan, Josh Dubin, Sam Poisak and Rabbi Storfer
We learned in the traditional Jewish style of chavrusas, which is one-onone study of classic Jewish texts. The students had a chance to explore deep Jewish questions — what is the mission of why G-d created the world and what is my individual part to fulfill it?
We thank Rabbi Immanuel Storfer of Yeshiva Torah Ohr for helping set this up.

We are looking forward to an amazing spring semester with lots of activities planned, both social and learning, including a Jewish Heritage Day for the whole community to come together and celebrate Jewish pride with our students. Stay tuned for details.
Chabad at FGCU caters to Jewish students there and other nearby schools regardless of level of observance and affiliation.
