Congregation Kehilath Jeshurun is a Modern Orthodox synagogue, located on East 85th Street on the Upper East Side of the New York City borough of Manhattan. The synagogue was founded in 1872. The synagogue is closely affiliated with the Ramaz School which shares a building with the lower school and is across the street from the middle school.The name Ramaz derives from the initials of Rabbi Moses Zevulun Margolies, the grandfather-in-law of the school's founder, Rabbi Joseph H. Lookstein . Rabbi Margolies served as the synagogue's rabbi from 1906 until his death in 1936. Lookstein had served as the congregation's assistant rabbi after receiving his semicha in 1926 from the Rabbi Isaac Elchanan Theological Seminary at Yeshiva University and had assumed many of the roles as congregational leader while his grandfather was ill for many years before his death, assuming the title of senior rabbi after his grandfather's death in 1936. The current senior rabbi of the congregation, Rabbi Haskel Lookstein, is the son of Joseph Lookstein and was a member of the first class of six students at Ramaz when the school was established in 1937. Haskel Lookstein was installed as assistant rabbi on June 14, 1958, serving under his father, and became Senior rabbi after his father's death in 1979. Other current leaders of the congregation include Rabbi Elie Weinstock and Rabbi Roy Feldman.

The Stephen Donaldson Lounge (aka the SD Lounge or SDL) is a meeting space for queer and trans student groups of Columbia University. Students from any of the undergraduate and graduate schools of the university are welcome to attend meetings that take place in the SDL. The lounge is located in the basement of Furnald Hall. Furnald Hall is a residence hall north of Lerner, next to Pulitzer Hall (the Journalism school building). Furnald has a ramp to enter the building (as an alternative to the set of a few steps), and the doors have a push-to-open button for entering and exiting. The Lounge is accessible by either elevator or stairs—after entering, head back and to the left. The elevator will be on your left through the further back hallway, and the stairs are straight ahead at the end of the hall. [Info about booking the SDL for meeting/event space will be coming soon!] If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to send a message to the page here or email the lounge monitor Caleb at [email protected].
