Dunno if it’s commendable if it results in death threats.
I am not Mik5. I took liberal courses where many of my classmates were Jewish. I am a “girl.” I grew up secular and want to speak up.
I can tell you that I was in a class and my teacher said something racist (even by CR standards) and the room was silent. Did any students of whom she was talking about speak up against her? Or say that she was wrong? Or question it?
Seconds later she switched topics. I was shocked that no one said anything so I did. I asked her how she could say that and I challenged her rebuttal.
In retrospect, maybe the students had to live with that daily, overtly and covertly, and being minorities they were affected by the oppression.
I was in a better position to call her out. Someone needed to do it.
The person who it affects the most may not be in that position.
Thank you

Why would someone be a seminary teacher if she is a closet liberal?
As great as DY and Joseph are, is the teacher wrong for advising her students not to flock to the CR for shailot?
Do you except a seminary teacher on the right to be encouraging her students to use the Internet?
Neville ChaimBerlin Lol!
Local Orthodox Chabad Rabbi 🙂
Probably because he has good reason to protect himself from being beat-up after class, mocked, and who knows what else.
Today’s world is much different.
Furthermore, it could be a conflict. Students have no problem filming another student in class.
At the start of mik5 expressing his beliefs and oppositional views, a red light turns on and suddenly his name and face are on YouTube and Twitter. Open to the world’s ridicule.
Why wouldn’t his LOR not advise him to remain quiet?
No one is stopping other Chassidic Dynasties from differentiating between their Rebbes
Why do you get to single out Chabad Lubavitch?
There are many layers into their why.
Why not go ask your LOCR yourself?

How many people read the CR for entertainment without posting?
Is it a thing ?
Awww!! This was the thread where they thought that you’re a man
Thanks Randomex ~ Genius 🙂
Isn’t it possible that the song as you know it being traditional was once a non-traditional version of the song?
Back in the day someone thought that the version that you prefer was new and rubbed one the wrong way. Now that’s all you know.
rebshidduch, Guessing LU meant her friend’s daughter’s teenager.
Never considered bald women. I wonder how often it happens that a woman’s hair is completely lacking and permanently.
What about women who shave their heads and wear tichels?
Eyebrow color?
Joseph will you please sign my autograph book here:

The CR def encouraged me to take my RL shaila’s to a rabbi after asking them for real here.
For me the CR is a blessing and I believe that those who come to it seeking good will b’esrat Hashem reap goodness.
Hashem is ultimately in charge and what looks like chaos or ridiculousness to one’s eye is really a masterpiece.
Wasn’t there only one Frierdiker Rebbe?
If you mean a Rebbe like the Frierdiker Rebbe then also no because every one has a unique neshamah and there was only one Frierdiker Rebbe and may his memory be a blessing to us all.

Are white and gray separate colors?
I don’t remember a space between Daas Yochid but that doesn’t mean that there wasn’t ever one.
Now lilmod ulelamaid is LilmodUlelamaid but alas, when I click on your name it’s the same results as when there was a space.
One hardest projected part is when other people know the lottery winner won money.

Still no answer to “What hair color do they put on the driver’s licenses of bald men?” (streekgeek)
Anyone know for sure?

This is a good question.
What happens when someone serves alcohol at a simcha and then all the guests drive home afterward?
Did they all organize sober drivers to take them home?

I’ve had this nightmare dozens upon dozens of times! So scary.
Feels so good to wake up and know that it didn’t happen, Baruch Hashem.

Pesto is like a salad but with oil — so maybe it’s salad dressing?
What about salsa? That’s like a salad too.

I think so… where do you need them to be baking challah?
Did you want to join?
Well at this point I don’t know who owns the CR.
Maybe this is a machlokes.
I prefer being called a woman.
In a frum setting, girl is okay given the context.
In a non-frum/secular environment, I find it offensive.
I think it’s sweet when a little kid calls me ma’am. Makes me feel like an adult.
Mik5: Sounds like your professor is already setting up the power struggle to unload more contradictory views throughout the semester.
—Potential issues such as exams on Yom Tovim may come up here, with the professor being unaccommodating.
I would keep as much correspondence in email as possible, for your records. That way if anything comes up you can go to administration with verification of you stating your religious needs and etc.
Though… glad that you asked a shaila and let us know.
Sending you blessings for success and smooth and strong studies 🙂
Mik5 absolutely deserves this opportunity for success.
Hashem is good and generous, not because we deserve it but because Hashem is that good ~ And has that much and more to give to Mik5.
CTLAWYER: So what about law school. Professors make a huge difference. I’ve changed courses because the professor was not accommodating to my needs. Ended up in another class which was mamash mi hashamayim and I graduated with honors —all after what otherwise looked like there was no chance at ever graduating.
He learned from his law school experience.
What, Hashem doesn’t allow for teshuvah?
Certainly He does. Mik5 may be more successful as a paralegal because of his previous experiences, not despite.
Mik5: Yasher Koach to You!
