About this walk

Founded in 1921, Hebrew College teaches rabbis, cantors, and scholars from every Jewish movement side by side, a rare pluralistic model on a quiet Newton campus.

Every campus tells one story to visitors and another to itself. This walk covers both. Five stops over 0.4 miles, about 47 minutes of walking. Each one starts talking the moment you reach it, so you can keep your eyes on the street instead of a screen.

Of the four MassRoam tours in Newton, this is the campus one. There is no start time to make — walk it in one go, or leave the rest for another afternoon.
