About Becoming a Member
Do I need to be a film major to join Cinegogue?
No! Cinegogue is meant to be a space for Jews of all disciplines to learn about the Entertainment Industry. Wether you're a business or communications major, Cinegogue is here to help you explore your creative passions.
Is it okay if I am not very religious?
Absolutely! Cinegogue members come from all different backgrounds of Judaism from more devout to more relaxed. Some members have never had bar/bat mitzvahs while others attend weekly services. Cinegogue holds no requirement of religious practice and is open to everyone regardless of devotion to religion.
Is Cinegogue a difficult club to become a part of?
No! We do not require members to apply for admission into our organization. We do ask that all incoming members fill out the mandatory new member form but this is simply a formality for us to collect more information about you and your interests. It is not an exclusionary space by any means as we champion community involvement.

About Being a Member
How often are meetings?
Meetings are weekly. Every meeting is different as one week it may be a guest speaker and screening, another week it may be a workshop. Cinegogue is dedicated to keeping members engaged and informed at all times .
Do I need to attend all meetings?
No, but we do require normal attendance. While we don't require attendance to every meeting, we do ask that our members attend meetings semi-regularly. In the case of scheduling conflicts or emergencies, we understand a lack of attendance and urge attendance in the future.
What if I have an interest that isn't being addressed OR there is a production I don't want to work on?
Both feelings are perfectly okay! Cinegogue is for you, and as such we want to cater to your interests. If there is something you are interested in learning about, talk to us and we will work on making it happen. Alternatively, if there is an original production you have no interest being involved in, that's perfectly fine. All productions are voluntary and made up of students who sign up to be on crew.
