Columbia Students Have A Blast

NEW YORK, NY

Students and faculty at Columbia carved their own Shofar last week. The Tzivos Hashem shofar factory was sponsored by Chai Society, the Chabad club at Columbia University and Barnard.
Hy Safran, a student, says, “I just wanted to thank you and Chabad for putting together a wonderful event today at Columbia.
It was a real thrill for me to have helped make my own “tube” (shofar).”
