RGLP was an eye-opening experience that I will never forget. I wanted to build strong leadership skills to aid me in my future endeavors, and RGLP provided that medium. Throughout the term, I got to know members of my cohort who had various backgrounds, interests, cultures, and intellectual curiosity. In our meetings, we discussed how cross-cultural experiences teach us to tolerate ambiguity better and build a platform for dialogue across differences. Because no-one had the same experience, we all were able to provide inputs on contentious topics.

The rabbi didn’t know if we were comfortable with this as it meant more conservative customs and made it clear we had the option to attend services elsewhere if we wished to.
