Military Service AccommodationsThe Hebrew University administration is shocked and deeply mourns the brutal murder of Carmel Gat and five other hostages held by Hamas.
Carmel, a master’s student at Hebrew University’s School of Occupational Therapy, was kidnapped from Kibbutz Be’eri on October 7. Her mother, Kinneret, was murdered. Her sister-in-law, Yarden Roman-Gat, who was abducted alongside her, was released after 54 days in captivity.
Dear University Community,
The Hebrew University remains committed to initiating and supporting diverse volunteer efforts, offering assistance to displaced citizens, IDF soldiers in both reserve and active duty, and the wider community.
We are proud to share updates on these meaningful initiatives once again.
A sincere thank you to everyone contributing to this important work!
Dear Members of the Hebrew University Community,
In light of the ongoing public discourse on freedom of speech since the onset of the war, we believe it is important to clarify the university’s position on this matter.
Attached is a document outlining the guidelines for publishing opinions and ideas within the Hebrew University community.
Sincerely,
Prof. Asher Cohen, President
Prof. Tamir Sheafer, Rector
Dear Students,
In light of the ongoing situation that continues to challenge us all, the ‘Breathing Room’ group – a community of students and academic staff at Hebrew University – invites you to join our online meditation and yoga sessions. These sessions offer a space for calm, relaxation, and movement.
Participation is free and open to the entire Hebrew University community, including students, administrative and academic staff, alumni, and anyone who identifies as part of our community.
Dear Students and Members of the University Community,
These are difficult and painful times for all of us, both personally and nationally. The uncertainty only adds to the challenge.
Many of us feel a strong need to contribute to the national effort and resilience of Israeli society, offering support wherever possible to security forces and residents of the south.
During this challenging time, we are offering extensive assistance to our students serving in the reserves across various fronts, including financial and emotional support. As the academic year begins, academic assistance will also be provided.
Reservists drafted under Order 8 for Operation Swords of Iron will receive a rent credit for university dormitories for up to three weeks (during October).
In addition, significant financial aid scholarships will be awarded at the end of the war.
