Hillel: The Foundation for Jewish Campus Life, alternatively Hillel International or simply Hillel, is an American Jewish student organization. Hillel brands itself as a safe space for Jewish students and events aimed at facilitating Jewish traditions on college campuses. Hillel describes itself as the "largest Jewish campus organization in the world". Founded in 1923 and headquartered in the United States, it is represented at higher education institutions and communities throughout Eurasia and the Americas, including in the former Soviet Union, Israel, and South America. Hillel has faced criticism for its failure to welcome non- and anti-Zionist Jewish students. Critical academics have described Hillel as "a Zionist organization that determines who can be Jewish and how".
