I can’t think of a more meaningful campus event that I have attended. It was reassuring to see people of different cultures and faith groups together for a common purpose. It was good fun to see old friends for an evening of adventuresome cuisine and enjoyable conversation. And, it was an honor to share the Breaking of the Fast with you.
I hope that this tradition continues. Thank you for organizing it for us.
Dr. Steve Jolly, Dr. Rabbi Lawrence Forman were also shared their thoughts on importance of interfaith dialog.
