SUMMARY:The Power of the Player: Name\, Image\, Likeness and Networking
DESCRIPTION:The Power of the Player: Name\, Image\, Likeness and Networking\nHow college athletes build their brand — and what we can learn from it.\nIt’s more than sports — it’s about how relationships\, reputation\, and the\nright connections can open doors in any field. Come for the conversation\, stay\nfor the connections. Meet fellow young Jewish professionals\, hear from experts\nin the field\, and enjoy a fun\, relaxed evening. \nOur guest speakers include: \n  * Michael Stein\, a trusted advisor for collegiate athletes\, specializing in Name\, Image\, and Likeness (NIL) representation. Michael leverages his legal acumen to help athletes navigate the evolving NIL space and maximize their earning potential. He’ll share insights from his experience guiding student-athletes through this rapidly changing landscape.\n  * Dylan Deitch\, who oversees both the day-to-day legal operations and the basketball business for Champions Circle\, the official collective supporting University of Michigan student-athletes. Dylan transitioned into the NIL space after starting his career at a corporate law firm in Chicago. His current work blends contract management\, donor engagement and day-to-day strategy around athlete marketing and team support. \nWhether you’re into sports or not\, today’s college athletes are rewriting the\nrules of personal branding and opportunity. Join us for The Power of the\nPlayer: Name\, Image\, Likeness and Networking\, where we’ll explore how student-\nathletes are leveraging their platforms — and how those same strategies apply\nacross industries. \n**Special thanks to our event co-chairs:**\nSteven Betel\nKyle Biel\nGillian Porter\nTaylor Weintraub\n**NEXTWork is brought to you by Gesher Human Services and NEXTGen Detroit.\nSpecial thanks to the Hadas and Dennis Bernard NEXTWork Endowment Fund.** \nView event on Jlive: https://jlive.app/events/12007

SUMMARY:The 2nd Annual Mimouna Celebration: A Jewish Moroccan Tradition
DESCRIPTION:Because last year was such a hit\, we’re once again celebrating one of the most\nfabulous and delicious Jewish customs out there\, and you’re invited! If you’re\nnot of Moroccan descent\, this may be your first time hearing about Mimouna\,\nbut we promise it won’t be the last. Traditionally celebrated on the last\nnight of Passover\, Mimouna is when families open their homes to friends and\nneighbors and serve all the sweet\, fluffy fried pastries we miss during\nPassover.

SUMMARY:Death Over Drinks
DESCRIPTION:The many mystical and meaningful Jewish traditions that surround death weren’t\nexactly covered in Hebrew school\, which is pretty unfortunate\, because they’re\nsome of the most interesting (and comforting) practices in our culture. Think\nit’s about time you learned a little about death in Judaism? How about over\ndrinks? Then you’ve come to the right place! Whether you are curious about\nshiva etiquette\, want to get some background info for when you become a\nmourner\, or are interested in learning how to comfort friends and family\nduring a loss\, this conversation is for you. We’ll be joined by Rabbi Jennifer\nKaluzny of Temple Israel to learn the basics about how Judaism conceptualizes\ndeath and how tradition teaches us to interact with one another during times\nof grief. \n$10 per person includes one drink on us and snacks. \nThis event is intended for young adults ages 21 to 39. \nThank you to our chairs:\nAdina Goss & Daniel Cohen \nView event on Jlive: https://jlive.app/events/10134
