AFI in Tel Aviv Israel, July 2007
Aggies for Israel (AFI) was a pro-Israel student group at UC Davis. AFI strived to educate, provide an accurate portrayal of Israel, and promoted Israel awareness on campus.
AFI's Goals:
-
Educate themselves about Israel.
-
Share the culture and history of Israel with the greater campus community.
-
Actively Support Israel's right for existence within the international community.
-
Fight anti-Semitism on campus.
As a group, AFI did not take a position on internal/external Israeli politics. Every member was entitled to his/her own opinion. AFI strived to facilitate and encourage a healthy discussion of Middle East affairs.
Meetings were usually held at 7:00pm, Tuesday night at the Hillel House 328 A Street, Davis, CA. If you were interested, feel free to join their Facebook Group, contact Hillel, or just show up at one of their meetings.
