<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica">Ever dreamed of making over $20 an hour just for studying? The Sinai Scholar's program knows your time is valuable (and definitely worth more than $8/hour), so they're offering a $350 stipend to students who want to learn more about Judaism but couldn't (or wouldn't) otherwise be able to take time out of their busy schedules: $350 for attending eight two-hour classes about Judaism taught by a local Rabbi… no joke! Last semester, Amherst College hosted the program but closed it to 5-College students; but Mount Holyoke is hosting the program this semester and has decided to invite 5-College students. This is a really great opportunity both to learn AND to connect with the 5-College Jewish community. </p>

In short, the Sinai Scholars Society offers a fresh and exciting program across university campuses. It integrates Torah study, social activities, and national networking opportunities to allow students to understand the contemporary significance of the Jewish experience. <b>THE PROGRAM IS NOT A BIG TIME/WORK COMMITMENT! </b>It requires you to attend eight two-hour classes and a short (we're talking 5-pages-double-spaced short) paper. To find a meeting time that works for everyone, the course instructor and Mt. Holyoke student coordinator (Sophia Neirman; MoHo's JSU "signer") have come up with a few regular/weekly meeting times/places for you to vote on:</p>
