Lauder Fellow, Noah Rubin, spoke at a vigil on October 11th on the University of Pennsylvania campus. He talked about how he and how other Jews have felt since October 7th.
Rubin, an Israeli American from Boca Raton, Florida, described the “emotional rollercoaster” he’d experienced since the news of the war broke. He said, “This vigil, our community’s responses and responses from communities around the world give me some glimmer of hope ... This gathering gives me strength.”
