Student Organizations

The Emerson Good News Fellowship took a retreat to Rice Lodge in Northborough, MA to explore meaning, idols, and relationships.

Emerson Good News Fellowship

Emerson Good News Fellowship (EGNF) is an ecumenical group formed from many different church denominations, which meets for Bible study prayer and fellowship. EGNF seeks to foster connections between Christians in the Emerson community. It also offers occasional services and community service projects, and helps connect Emersonians to local churches.

Hillel

Emerson College Hillel's mission is to enrich the lives of Jewish students so they may enrich the Jewish people and the world. Hillel student leaders, professionals, and lay leaders are dedicated to creating a pluralistic, welcoming, and inclusive environment for Jewish college students, where they are encouraged to grow intellectually, spiritually, and socially.

Hillel helps students find a balance in being distinctively Jewish and universally human by encouraging them to pursue tzedek (social justice), tikkun olam (repairing the world) and Jewish learning, and to support Israel and global Jewish peoplehood. Members of Hillel participate in social activities, cultural celebrations, and holiday services together.

Newman Club

The Newman Club provides opportunities for Catholic students to develop their faith and to work in sponsoring social, educational, spiritual, and service-oriented events. Students come together for debate, prayer, and fun! Meetings include food, discussions, trip/activity/retreat planning, and mediation. 

This year, the Newman Club spent Spring Break in Florida, where they volunteered at a soup kitchen, helped out at a Salvation Army, and formed lasting bonds with other Newman Club members and Florida residents.
