My fiance and I have become more interested in Judaism. We were previously unaffiliated but as we plan on raising a family together we think it is important for us to become more affiliated. As a part of this new affiliation we would like to have a Jewish wedding and learn what happens, what to say and all the parts of a Jewish wedding.

I was born and raised Jewish, and my family goes to a Reform temple. We aren’t very religious but I’ve found myself becoming more involved in my temple as I’ve gotten older. I don’t plan on being extremely observant in college but I’d like to have the option of going to temple.
I’m a junior in high school so I’ve been looking at colleges. I’ve been discounting a lot of colleges, both public and private, on the basis of religious affiliations.
Obviously Judaism is a minority religion in the U.S., so I haven’t found many “Jewish” schools. Should I still look at schools affiliated with Christianity or am I doing the right thing? I’m not really sure how much of an impact a religion will have on the college and campus life.
Thank you!
