Programs for Students at IDC University
We organize a wide range of programming for students studying abroad at IDC University, including guest speakers, lunch-and-learns, weekend trips, and Shabbat dinners with local families. We work to incorporate the true Israel experience with each student’s study abroad experience, exposing students to Israeli culture and Jewish life in Israel while helping them foster lifelong friendships with one another.

Rav Gavriel
DIRECTOR OF EVENTS

Meet Rabbi Gavriel Lakser, the new Director at Jeff Seidel’s Student Center by the IDC Herzliya!
Rav Gav holds a BA in History from York University and received rabbinical ordination from Yeshivat Hamivtar in Efrat. He lives in Jerusalem with his wife and three children.
Rav Gav has been inspiring Jews of all backgrounds as an educator and through his writing, and he has a unique ability to relate the incredible wisdom of Judaism’s sacred texts in a manner that is both inspiring and accessible. Whether you’re looking for a Torah study partner, a friendly game of pick-up ball, or to schmooze about politics or philosophy, drop in to the JSC to say Hi.
Looking forward to meeting you!
