  • in reply to: What is the Ner Yisroel college program #1159505

    Chevrai, I am personally a bochur at the Yeshiva, and I first want to say that college is an absolute bedieved, and we must remember that at all times. I am embarrassed to say that I am in college. If you must go to college there are options. You can do Johns Hopkins where you get half of credits from ner and about 20 classes over 2.5 years from johns Hopkins and that is an undergrad in business. Pre-med is done through Towson, and you take the necessary science courses and use your Bachelors in Talmudic Law to apply to Medical school, dental school,etc. There is also a program with UMBC, where it is half ner credits but these credits you must actually take classes for, albeit jewish classes that they offer in ner, and about 60 credits of whatever your major is at UMBC.

    I want to wish you much Hatzlacha, and I want to leave you with a sthickle form the Ramban on Berieshis. I love the Ramban and I encourage everyone to learn it. Efshur its more important to learn Ramban than Gemara. Efshur. Anyway we know that by the creation of man on day 6, pasuk says tov meod. Chazal darshan from this pasuk that its referring to yetzer hara, and other things generally thought of as being bad. So the obvious question is why is it being called good? SO the Ramban answers that looking at things individually and in isolation it might seem that things are bad. Be it the yetzer hara, be it events that take place. But when you look at things form a birds eye view, and when the full picture finally becomes clear, and in the culmination of an event, then you see that that what you thought was bad actually turned out to be VERY GOOD. Meine tireh chaverim, take care and hatzlacha in all that we do.
