Farewell to Seniors; Alex Grodner receives Legacy Award

At Shabbat dinner on Friday, December 9, we wished farewell to our graduating seniors, and awarded Hillel’s prestigious Isa Dorsky Legacy Award to Alex Grodner.

Alex is pictured with Bryan Kellert (Hillel Vice President) and Heather Rousso (President). Alex hails from Birmingham, AL, and has been involved on campus and at Hillel since his freshman year at Alabama. He has served as president of ZBT and co-president of Hillel. We thank Alex for his years of service- he will be missed! Seniors Alyssa Dinberg and Julie Muhlendorf were also honored at the dinner and received gifts.  A large turnout of students helped make the event especially celebratory.

The Legacy Award was established in 2009 in honor of Hillel student president Isa Dorsky. It is a way to honor a graduating student who has been exceptionally dedicated to Bama Hillel and who has made a significant and lasting impact on Jewish student life at UA. Previous recipients include Isa Dorsky (’09) and Miriam Fry (’11)
