    ‘first step is to visit Yeshivat Har Etzion, they have a web site…’

    My son just returned from 11 months at Yeshivat Har Etzion. Just last week he explained to me the ‘Gush’ philosophy and definition of Modern Orthodoxy. According to him (I hope I do his explantion justice), someone who is MO uses the modern world (culture, literature, technology) to enhance his service to Hashem. Obviously there is more to it, but growing up MO I had never heard it explained before, and to me it makes perfect sense.

    FYI, my son went to a co-ed elimentary school and an all boys HS.
