Wondering What’s Next? A Conversation on Jewish Life After High School

As your student prepares for life after high school, you might be asking:
What should they know about responding to antisemitism in college and in the workplace?
How can they find meaningful Jewish connections on campus?
Can they feel confident being openly Jewish while navigating early adulthood?

If these questions sound familiar, you’re not alone – and you’re in the right place.

Join us for a thoughtful and timely conversation featuring Burkett/Elite members—including college students and young professionals—alongside Jewish community leaders and partners. Together, we’ll explore what it means to stay connected, proud, and grounded in Jewish identity through college, career, and beyond.
