Josue Menjivar is a part-time student who balances his role as a full-time language translator in the UNC Hospital system with his studies. Last summer, he participated in the Study Abroad 2017 Huqoq excavation with Jodi Magness, Kenan Distinguished Professor for Teaching Excellence in Early Judaism. Since 2011, Professor Magness has led archaeological excavations at the site of Huqoq in Israel’s Galilee, where she and her team have garnered international attention for their discovery of an ancient synagogue building with stunning mosaic floors.
