Derech Hamelech, you miss the point that the Talmidei Chachomim who came out of YU, are also secularly well-educated. they have achieved the best of both worlds, something the Lakewood Lamdanim have not, because they do not believe in getting that education. I am not criticizing them for that, but neither should you or anyone else criticize YU Rabbonim, or diminish their learning. Lakewood is not the only Makom Torah in this country. My own Rov is the product of YU, and I will stack him up against any product of the Lakewood Yeshivah. He IS a Gadol, has written several seforim and chiddushei Torah,is erudite, learned, intellectual, artistic, and a real mensch.
