Community Comes Out in Support of Indiana Jewish Student Center
More than 40 people came out in support of the Chabad House-Jewish Student Center serving Indiana University Bloomington last week after vandals three a beer bottle through one of the center’s windows and removed the word “Jewish” from its facade.
The Dec. 11 unity event – held on the last night of Chanukah – was attended by Bloomington, Ind., Mayor Mark Kruzan and Karen Hanson, provost of Indiana University. Several participants held candles and formed a human menorah.
“The message of Chanukah is the triumph of spirit over matter, the triumph of light over darkness,” said Rabbi Yehoshua Chincholker, co-director of the Chabad House. “Religious freedom is common to all man.”
Bloomington United, a local group promoting inter-religious dialogue, partnered with Chincholker to organize the ceremony.
