Reflections on my time at HU
By Daniel Wosk, Vancouver
I attended Rothberg toward the end of my undergraduate degree. Living in Jerusalem and studying at HU was a profound experience that continues to have a positive impact in my life. As a student, I enjoyed a range of subjects from Jerusalem Archaeology to Israeli Foreign Policy. Advancing my Hebrew in Ulpan was a particularly rewarding challenge that I benefit from to this day. I’m especially moved by the incredible research, innovation, social impact and leadership that continuously emerge from the university.
For the past five years, I’ve had the privilege to serve on the board of CFHU Vancouver. Since 2016. I’ve enjoyed raising funds for the Einstein Legacy Student Scholarships by simply hosting ice hockey games. I really appreciate the individuals who have adopted this tradition in other cities and all those who have participated. Not only are we sponsoring an increasing number of deserving students to make a difference at HU, but our support network across the country is growing steadily.
Since my time with HU, I’ve been more connected and involved in my community. With thanks to the amazing work I see happening in and around the university, I do more tikun olam and volunteer for a variety of causes on a regular basis. I’m also making more conscious choices and investments in business and in life.
It’s an honour to share my time and resources with a place that makes such valuable contributions to this world and all humanity, while continuing to provide me with great friendships, memories and inspiration.
