This is an opportunity to bring Jewish and Muslim students (and any others who wish to come along) together in a non-threatening environment to facilitate formation of friendships and relationships. These students do not often socialize together and the intent is to offer them a way to "play together" so that they can form relationships that will later enable deeper conversation on topics of importance between the religious traditions that they represent. This event is designed to let them get to know each other as human beings and fellow students and hopefully to help dispel stereotypes and misconceptions or fears that they might harbor about the other.
