Taste of Tempe

Our students have the privilege of attending an incredible institution in an amazing city. Too often, however, we find that our students feel stuck on campus - whether Tempe, Downtown, Poly, or West. The rigor of coursework and the demands of extracurriculars keep them confined to the same paths, streets, and buildings each day. At Hillel, we strive to help our students discover. Taste of Tempe, a new social cohort, empowers our students to do just that, forcing them outside of the ASU bubble to interact with the diverse, rich, and complex world around them. From dinners at various restaurants around the valley to watching a circus troupe made up of individuals with various disabilities, Taste of Tempe allows our students to develop a deeper connection with the community they call home for so much of the year. All the while, they form relationships with other students that might not encounter otherwise, deepening the connections within our own community at Hillel.
