No GAW, that is not what I am saying. Yu is a university with a head who runs it, as in any university. one part of it is a yeshiva with rosh yeshiva who has no say over the other schools.
BMG is a yeshiva, and like many yeshivas, its reins are passed down to the most qualified within the family. It currently has 4 Roshei Yeshiva and 1 CEO. And even though the money is obviously important and the yeshiva could not survive and spread Torah without it, the priority of any Yeshiva is its Torah learning, and therefore the most kavod is given to the ones who teach it, ie the Roshei Yeshiva. And that should be true no matter who is “calling the shots”, for example, when it comes to building a mall. Suggesting otherwise is denigrating to Torah and its teachers.
