Hillel JUC and Pitt offer pre-orientation program for new students

The Hillel Jewish University Center of Pittsburgh and the University of Pittsburgh are partnering on a new pre-orientation program for incoming Pitt students.

Dubbed “FreshFest,” the program offers participating students access to early residence hall move-in dates and two days of programming to acclimate them to campus, including field trips around Pittsburgh, a welcome brunch for students and their families and Shabbat dinner. Participating students also will be paired with a returning student mentor to “answer questions, be a guide to Pitt life, and build an enduring relationship with participants,” according to Hillel officials.
