Our Mission:

The Ziegler School of Rabbinic Studies fosters an unprecedented blend of academic rigor, emotional warmth and openness, traditional and innovative spirit in the service of God, Torah, and Israel.  The School fuses the methods and findings of the academic study of Judaism with the fervor and devotion of traditional study and observance.  The School focuses on the journey of each rabbinical student to produce extraordinary rabbis to lead the Jewish people in a renaissance of talmud Torah, shmirat mitzvot, and gemilut hasadim. In this way, the School strengthens and energizes Conservative Judaism and Klal Yisrael.
