USC, Los Angeles, California - ...I am no longer the kid who simply accepts Judaism because I am Jewish, but rather I can see the true value & importance of Judaism in living a just & moral life.
USC, Los Angeles, California - All in all, I now have a completely new understanding of my religion.
Boston University, Boston, Massachusetts - There are so many things that I could have gone my whole life not knowing that I know now, and I’m very thankful that I took this class.
Boston University, Boston, Massachusetts - I’m definitely now much more proud of my religion than I ever was before.
