Choosing a College
A Guide for Observant Students

Rabbi Joseph Polak

“This publication must be placed in the hands of all high school juniors and seniors.”
- Richard M. Joel, President and International Director, Hillel: The Foundation for Jewish Campus Life

OU/NCSY announces a new edition of Choosing a College: A Guide for Observant Students.

Written by Rabbi Joseph Polak, Hillel Rabbi at Boston University, Choosing a College graphically describes the challenges Orthodox students face in college dorms and campuses generally. Through vignettes and "what if" situations, Rabbi Polak sets out the choices students will inevitably have to make and the possible compromises they may be faced with.

By presenting the factors that Orthodox students should consider in a college before making it their home for the next four years, he enables them to make an informed choice and to muster all the resources they will need to maintain their emunah, their learning and their observance.

This publication should be required reading for all high school juniors and seniors.

$3.50 (including shipping).

Schools may order in bulk (10 copies and over) at a reduced cost.
