What does individual aveiros have to do with open chilul Hashem? Any yeshivoa would close down rather than accommodate such a chilul Hashem – a thousand times worse than the reason for the closing of the volozhin Yeshiva. Sometimes you need to close. YU wouldn’t close, because it doesn’t believe in the sanctity of its institution.
From where do you derive that if not for YU there wouldn’t be a cope program in agudah? Most litvishe boys went to college, but they went to Brooklyn college at night after yeshivah and held their nose. No one needed YU
Hirschian? Is that why rav hirsch’s community in Washington heights was the most vocal opponent of YU in the country? Give me a break. Rav hirsch wrote about secular studies being the hand maids of Torah while Norman lamm said that they’re basically equal.
