Leadership

The Williams College Jewish Association is run by a student board that meets weekly in open meetings. All are welcome. Board meetings take place on Tuesdays at 9:00pm in the JRC.

Contact WCJA Presidents Ariella Scheer ’26 ([email protected]), Noah Cape ’25 ([email protected]), Rachel Schmidt ’25 ([email protected]), Emily Axelrod ’25 ([email protected]), or Emma Nathanson ’25 ([email protected]) with any questions regarding meeting times or joining the WCJA board.
