Your Friendly Campus Rabbi

by Michelle Frantino – Stony Brook Press

Rabbi Adam Stein

On a Friday after sunset, you may see students walking up Roosevelt Drive. They pass Stimson and Keller College then continue up the hill until they reach building ‘A’ of West Apartments. They look left and see a tree with Christmas lights wrapped around its trunk. That’s where they enter the woods. They follow a path lined with lights that leads to the front yard of a house.
