The Aguda (Student Union) is the official student body for all of Ben Gurion University's students.
Based in Be'er Sheva, the Aguda organizes exciting and interesting events on an almost daily basis. The Aguda also addresses issues related to the welfare of the student body as a whole and of individual students. Members of the Aguda are even entitled to unlimited access to the University's Sports Center in Be'er Sheva. All students are able to join the Aguda by paying the "welfare/student activity" fee at the beginning of the academic year.
To learn more about the Aguda, visit their website (English or Hebrew). The Aguda also sends out a weekly update in English specifically for international students (sign up). Or just check the Aguda out on Facebook!
Food committees
Second-hand Hummus
The SecondHand Hummus committee is hosting fun events every few weeks, where we collect second hand stuff and sell delicious hummus for low prices to cover costs. We mainly deal with collecting the second hand stuff (cloths, kitchen stuff and basically everything that people want to give away), cooking and making the hummus and organizing the event itself. It's always with good vibes, good music and of course the good people of the campus! And we are always looking for some more help (you don't need to be a chef if you want to join!).
Email us at midbarhummus@gmail.com or join our whatsapp group if you are interested!
Soup nights!
Volunteers make delicious soups and get refunded for the ingredients. We serve soups with bread and spreads, and volunteers who help cook and serve, get a free bowl!
