Bishop Robert Stearns was blessed recently to be invited by President, Rabbi Ari Berman and Special Advisor to the President, Rabbi Ari Lamm of the Yeshiva University, joined with good friend Daniel Posner, to spend a day touring the campus and then in discussion with leaders of this prestigious institution. Â
Yeshiva University has grown from a small yeshiva offering some secular education to Jews on the Lower East Side of Manhattan in 1886 to a prestigious, multifaceted institution that integrates the knowledge of Western civilization and the rich treasures of Jewish culture.
Yeshiva University today supports three undergraduate schools (including honors programs and Torah studies programs), seven graduate and professional schools, renowned affiliates such as the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and the Rabbi Isaac Elchanan Theological Seminary, a diverse multitude of scholarly centers and institutes, and several libraries, a museum and a university press, located on campuses both in the United States and Israel.  www.yu.eduÂ
This was yet another opportunity for the Jewish and Christian communities to give friendship to each other. We are excited and encouraged to endeavor towards future collaboration.
