Q3 2026 - Wexner Heritage Alumni Delegates Council Meeting

President Elka Abrahamson will share a few insights from Mussar practice that guided her through the toughest leadership and personal moments of the last few years and also ask us to consider the inner work we ourselves must engage in to become better leaders (and people).

מַצְרֵף לַכֶּסֶף וְכוּר לַזָּהָב; וְאִישׁ לְפִי מַהֲלָלוֹ׃
“The crucible tests silver, and the furnace tests gold; and a person is tested by their praise.”

Proverbs 27:21

In our shared history we have faced, persevered, and flourished through many challenges. In this session, we will look at biblical and rabbinic texts as sources for inspiration for the ways we might respond to such challenges, as well as for guidance about underlying values in establishing lasting communities. Some surprising resonances may lie ahead as we explore our interpretations of these ancient texts.
