The Conservative Jewish Community celebrated the conclusion of its CJC Rush events the way Jews do best: with a ton of food. Thirty freshmen who “rushed” CJC joined the fifteen CJC Board members for a casual shmooze over kosher Chinese cuisine. The freshmen were introduced to the various committees and encouraged to sign up for the three umbrella CJC sectors: Social, Holiday, and Education. “They seemed really excited,” said CJC co-chair Eliot Gordon in a phone interview. Upper classmen have commented on the enthusiasm the Rush has generated among Conservative freshmen, and have dubbed the program an overwhelming success. “We have very high expectations of years to come,” states Eliot with confidence. “This is just the beginning. We are going to keep on building.”
