Chabad Jewish Student Group
About This Organization
- Abbreviation(s):
- Chabad (CJSG)
- Purpose:
- Providing Jewish awareness to the students at Texas A&M University. Our objectives include but are not limited to; educational and social activities. Within the world's Jewish population, which is considered a single self-identifying ethnicity, there are distinct ethnic divisions. An array of Jewish communities were established by Jewish settlers in various places around the World, often at great distances from one another resulting in long-term isolation. During the millennia the Jewish communities would develop under the influence of their local environments; political, cultural, natural, and populational. Today, manifestation of these differences among the Jews are observed in Jewish cultural expressions of each community, including Jewish linguistic diversity, culinary preferences and liturgical practices. The CJSG is a representation of that. Our emphasis is on the education and awareness of the Jewish people and heritage.
