Most people going to Brooklyn College learning about why its great to be an atheist and the communist manifesto are not next in line to inherit a Rabbinic Dynasty.
there are lots of good reason’s why someone shouldn’t go to college or should be very careful where they go. but when you just make up random statements that aren’t reality based, it takes away the validity of the rest of your point.
as an aside – when my daughter chose a field that required her to go to college (with daas torah, someone very connected to the field who knows all sides) her mentor’s from seminary said that while in college she should make sure to attend one or two shiurim a week WITHOUT FAIL! You either attend a small shiur where you are seen and connected, or make a weekly appointment with a mentor/michaneches. Now, as she finishes, her menaheles (the one who gives the shiur) told me that her ability to hold to the schedule no matter what was going on was amazing and unusual. And my daughter said that if you can’t follow thru, you need to think very carefully about secular college.
But that wasn’t because of atheism or anything else, it was the influences of non-jews, the language, the stories they share etc. and this was with her being in an all girls program (by chance) and spending 3 days a week in hospitals, not classes.
College isn’t always the wrong choice, but don’t take it for granted that your strong ties can withstand a very stressful college career.
