SJS answer #3 is not valid at all. I hear, ok the first two, but i know someone who ran a seminary for a few years and she said they made NOTHING on it. In fact, they were doing so badly i think they closed down. People don’t want to accept it but its a fact that there are a LOT of expenses involved in running a seminary.
As far as seminary being a luxury and pple trying to make it necessary. It’s their problem if they feel they have to send their children cuz that’s whats accepted now.
And dont you think that seminaries have a right to charge more than a regular school tuition? they are including food and board. And for all those who say , how come the yeshivos don’t charge so much- yeshivos go around collecting, i don’t know about you but i would turn away anyone collecting for a seminary.
