I think the Jewish life in Binghamton is amazing; however, it is lacking in one major category: intramural sports. If I could change one thing with respect to Jewish life on campus, I would spend much more time developing a better intramural sports program. How many times has there been a speaker or a night dedicated to learning without as much as one program in preparation for an intramural season. We as athletes and Jews are presented with an amazing potential to welcome more Jews into the fold. I firmly believe that if we were to put out an amazing squad for each sport more people would talk about Chabad and therefore come to Chabad and ultimately become better Jews. Who is going to want to come for Friday night dinner if the Chabad team cant even hit a jump shot; I mean these are priorities that need to be addressed. Thusly, I would recruit the best Jewish athletes in the country obviously they would be from out of state and get them here, so that we could dominate intramurals and be a light unto the nations.
