The Leadership Council is the student governing body that ensures Hillel is running smoothly and efficiently.
The purpose of the Hillel Leadership Council, it to create a pluralistic environment that both welcomes and engages as many students as possible to explore and celebrate Judaism. Twice a month, the leadership council hosts town hall meetings where Micro-communities can gather and voice their accomplishments and concerns. A Micro-community could be a Registered Student Organization (RSO) or it could be a group of 8 students that share some common goal or identity.

IlliniPAC
For over three decades, Illini Public Affairs Committee (IlliniPAC) has strongly supported the U.S.- Israel relationship at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
We do so by advocating for elected officials to support a strong U.S.- Israel alliance, educating the student body about the benefits of strong ties between the two nations, and engaging student leaders across campus to promote a pro-Israel environment at the University.
We are the one stop shop for Israeli cultural happenings at the University of Illinois!
ISSI actively and publicly supports the state of Israel while promoting critical thinking and respectful dialogue on complex issues related to Israel.
