TheChallenge

Young people face a lifetime of rules prior to arriving on campus and the natural tendency is frequently to throw off that yoke, at times quite intensely. This often leads to an experience that is fraught with challenges, while clarity and direction are hard to come by — especially in a socioeconomic and political climate that is increasingly defjned by moral ambiguity and corruption. As society’s guides and educators we ask

urselves:

How do we address the issues our students are facing? What can we provide so that they can experience independent critical thinking without losing their way? What can we do to ensure that the students of today receive the support and guidance they need to develop into the strong and proud leaders of tomorrow?

TheApproach

Chabad believes in higher purpose. A Chabad House on campus organizes activities and programs, and serves as a family-like presence that grounds, inspires, and supports — a home away from home for students, and a hub for the campus community. The husband and wife teams who direct Chabad Houses on Campus are immersed in this work 24/7. They are called “Emissaries,” as their commitment is forever and unconditional — it is not a career move, and there is no exit strategy. That’s why they build relationships that last forever. They are committed to helping young people explore their spirituality and develop their love for humanity without imposing more rules — by showing them a path of fulfjllment through personal meaning and joy, and through leading by

example. They provide guidance and inspiration that fosters

real growth and the realization of one’s potential. It is a path of self-empowerment that allows the individual to progress from

ne level of perfection to the next, constantly discovering new

things about one’s self and one’s place in the world. The Chabad House provides opportunities for the holistic development and enhancement of the inner potential of individuals — intellectual, moral, emotional, physical, social, cultural, spiritual. It prepares students to become not only highly educated, but also accountable leaders with a sense of responsibility who will carry these values with them into their public and private lives. This is happening on the ground every day with tremendous success on 177 campuses worldwide.

PERSONAL SUPPORT Chabad on Campus International Foundation is here for the emissaries and their families: In times of joy we send a gift, in times of need we provide a modest loan or grant to get them through a difficult time, and we help them get any coaching

r counseling when necessary.

LONG TERM STRATEGIC PLANNING A key motivator for sustainable growth is when stakeholders develop goals for making their work reach the next level. Chabad on Campus engages select Shluchim to work with colleagues to think bigger and turn their vision into a plan following a strategic model. After the plan is developed, the coaches follow through every three months to track progress and tweak the plan accordingly. ASHREINU SOCIETY FOR WOMEN Ashreinu Society for Shluchos was created to strengthen the sense of community, sharing and support among the women emissaries on campus. Ashreinu is comprised of groups of Shluchos who connect regularly to support one another, helping each woman thrive in her personal life and professional success. The groups meet bi-weekly by phone/Skype, and twice annually at Chabad conventions. ANNUAL CONFERENCE The Annual Chabad on Campus International Conference is a tremendous networking and learning opportunity for the campus emissaries and their families. They share successes and challenges to learn from one another’s experiences. The social, celebratory atmosphere creates a sense of family. Lectures and roundtables allow emissaries to develop their skills and discuss subjects with invited experts. cww฀v Update Report: December 2007 FUNDRAISING RESOURCES Chabad on Campus provides a variety of fundraising tools to Chabad Houses, including resources, templates and tutorials on various

topics. In addition, experienced

representatives visit Chabad Houses to gauge their organizational development. ROHR FOUNDATION GRANT FACILITATION Chabad on Campus works with Chabad Houses to assist them in meeting the terms of their Rohr

grants. It includes submission of

the alcohol contract, raising the matching components of their grants, participation in the Strategic Initiative and submission of their bi- annual reports.

STAFF LEARNING The more a person learns Torah the more effective a teacher he will be and the more Torah he will teach. To help Chabad House staff grow in their own Torah learning, Chabad

n Campus is creating a program in

which campus staff can learn specific texts in depth, get tested and receive a stipend for achieving excellence. ISRAELINKS IsraeLinks cultivates Jewish leadership via an immersive educational experience in Israel, where students can best understand the Jewish People and our Holy

Land. Currently in its seventh year,

IsraeLinks engages students for two to three weeks to learn about Judaism and experience the land with highly sought after scholars. BIRTHRIGHT EXTENSION Chabad on Campus is piloting a brand new Birthright Extension program, that will capitalize on the Taglit-Birthright Israel experience. This will be a one week post- birthright program that takes the general passion and excitement of the Israel experience and channels it into a commitment to Yiddishkeit and a deeper relationship with Chabad back on campus. jLEARN jLearn provides a brand, strategy and structure for teaching Torah

n campus and cements the social

dynamic between the Chabad House staff and the students. Students register online and pay a fee for classes. Chabad House staff receive funding for trips, barbecues and social events at the end of the semester where students are presented with a certificate for completing the course. JEWISH STUDIES COUNSELOR One area where there exists great potential is in inspiring students to go to the next level in their Jewish journey by attending a Yeshiva. Since Chabad Houses need to focus on their entire community, a trained and knowledgeable Yeshiva recruiter is critical to ensure the great potential of these students is further realized. COURSE DEVELOPMENT & TORAH COACHING Chabad on Campus is offering a Coaching Program and a course development program specifically geared to guide Shluchim and Shluchos in teaching a weekly Torah class on campus that becomes a flagship learning opportunity that they encourage students to join.

The immediate and obvious benefjciary of a Chabad House on campus are the students served by the Chabad House, who benefjt not only from the activities and support, but also from a more wholesome spiritual atmosphere and a presence that exudes values of goodness and kindness. The campus community also benefjts from the presence of a family that serves as active, positive, responsible role models, and the contribution they make to the spiritual, cultural and academic life on campus. The Chabad House staff are also Jewish scholars who can serve as assets to the academic community. The university benefjts from the increase in programs and services being offered on campus and the contribution overall

atmosphere. The Chabad House presence is also a feature that

can be highlighted for recruiting Jewish students of all levels of affjliation. The Chabad approach is founded on a commitment to making the world a better place.
