Message From The President

My Dear Friends, Students and Colleagues, Our Sages say: “When Adar enters, joy and happiness enter with it.” At Yeshiva University, we take our celebrations of Adar and Purim seriously—from a Rosh Chodesh Adar chagigah to Megillah readings across campus to festive, themed Purim Seudot. Through actualizing our core Torah values, we elevate our lives and access our potential for true joy and happiness —in Adar, and throughout the year. As you will read about in the pages that follow, everything we do at YU centers on these core values and on advancing our community and our world: • Parents, grandparents and students studied together in our Dor L’Dor Yeshiva Learning Program • Young YU diplomats took on the world’s most pressing problems in the National Model United Nations event • Two recent guest speakers at the Straus Center discussed Herzl’s Zionist writings and the intersection of Judaism and journalism • Ferkauf opened the first-ever clinic to address non-verbal learning disorders • We sent a record number of representatives to the OurCrowd Global Summit 2023, the largest business conference in Israel Wishing you much continued success and an Adar filled with joy, meaning and personal growth.

Rabbi Dr. Ari Berman President, Yeshiva University
