Pardes Kollel
The Kollel is the highest learning level at Pardes and is a unique framework through which advanced students address and struggle with fundamental issues in Judaism, philosophy and modern life.
The Pardes Kollel is very much an open and creative learning environment politically, socially and religiously. Current Kollel students represent an impressive cross-section of highly educated learners, current and future teachers, activists, leaders and creative producers of ideas and initiatives that are changing the Jewish world and the world-at-large. Participants include lawyers, policy analysts, Talmud scholars, social activists, entrepreneurs and scholars.
