“I look back at how the Charitable Investment Club started so small, as just a mere idea tossed out by a student on the couches in a Beren lobby, but now, it has become something much bigger. Through long nights of baking and selling, I found myself developing not only a deep bond with the members of the Charitable Investment Club, but also the desire to do chesed,” writes Cara Listowsky, Entertainment Manager.

“I found the courage within myself to stop random people that I didn’t know walking through the lobby and ask them to donate to our cause. It was really special to see how people were willing to give generous amounts of their own money to help their fellow members of Klal Yisrael.

“Being the child of a pulpit rabbi and rebbetzin is often an honor and a blessing, as these positions are focused outward on the needs of the community. There is a great deal of beauty and pride in living a life of passionate service to others, but the fact remains that unlike their parents, the children of rabbis and rebbetzins are born into a life they did not choose,” writes Rebecca Kalmar (), Social Media Manager and Staff Writer.

“I don’t have all the solutions, and it’s true that some problems may not be solved, but I hope children of clergy who may feel lost or invisible can know they are not alone, and that there are people who care. While ‘preacher’s kid syndrome’ may not be real, preachers’ kids certainly are, and there is more that must be done to support them.”

“Creating artwork, in whatever form, allowed me to express myself in a way that words never could. I have always had a hard time communicating ideas and feelings verbally, but through my artwork, I can speak my mind and release my feelings onto a canvas, paper or cookie,” writes Aliza Flug (), Layout Editor and Social Media Manager.

“Art may not always come easy to me, but I have come to realize that it is more than simply a hobby. Although I wasn’t born a natural artist, the things that are meaningful in our lives often require hard work.”

“When I do well on something, I feel like I am meeting a requirement, and merely doing what is expected of me. However, when I fall short, even minor setbacks feel catastrophic, while my achievements blur in the background as obligations,” writes Zohar Ben Simon (), Science and Technology Editor.

“Learning to live with imperfection means showing yourself kindness. A life without perfection is a balanced one, and you should feel good about yourself no matter what.”

“As a 20-year-old on the brink of graduation this May, I can’t help but feel a little regret that I didn’t start attending these Shabbatonim sooner with my friends. These years fly by, and you only get so many chances to immerse yourself in experiences like these,” writes David Yagudayev (), Science and Technology Editor.

“The Shabbatonim I once shrugged off have now become some of my greatest college memories with friends.”

“Our survival has never depended on the divisions between us or on the labels we create for ourselves, but rather on the values that unite us. Our Torah, our sense of meaning and purpose, our commitment to being part of something greater to ourselves, this is what has kept us thriving,” writes Maya Menashe (), Science and Technology Editor.

“Especially in today’s world, with all the uncertainty and antisemitism, it is more important than ever to remember what truly matters. If we look beyond the superficial differences and see each other as part of something greater, then our people’s survival is inevitable.”

“When I listen to classical music, it relaxes my soul. A feeling of catharsis. The complex melodies and soothing harmonies are what help me get through the day,” writes Yechezkal Freundlich, Senior Science and Technology Editor.

“Thinking about the emotions I experience when listening can only be described as a word I learned about a few months back and in my opinion, it is one of the most beautiful words I have ever heard: apricity. Apricity means the warmth of the sun on a cold winter day, that feeling of comfort, that moment of elation in the ever-constant chaotic flow of life.”

“I used to chase happiness, the big moments, the adrenaline, the idea that I could find contentment in external success. But over time, I realized that chasing happiness alone left me feeling empty,” writes Yael Tangir (), Business Editor.

“In my personal journey, I learned to redefine success, not as a collection of peak moments, but as an ongoing process of growth and what truly matters to me. These days, I focus more on contentment and fulfillment, enjoying where I am in the moment instead of constantly running toward the next goal.”

“At YU, I have found both my place and my people. I’ve met those like-minded peers I never had in high school – people I thought didn’t even exist – and found an abundance of diversity and variation within the student body, all while remaining in a Jewish environment,” writes Talia Isaacs (), Business Editor.

“It’s funny how sometimes the last thing you wanted for yourself ends up being exactly what you needed.”

“Whether it’s planning a trip on a tight budget, stepping onto the fencing strip despite knowing I might lose or navigating life as a married college student, I’ve learned that sometimes the best way forward is simply to take the next step. Perfection isn’t the goal; progress is,” writes Chana Wakslak, Senior Business Editor and Business Manager.

“If you’re stuck waiting for the ‘right moment’ to take a leap – whether in academics, career, or life – consider this your sign to just start. You’ll figure it out along the way.”
