Did anyone posting on this thread learn in Brisk. Brisk was not even an official yeshiva when the Brisker Rov and Reb Berel were the roshie yeshiva. The whole “going to Brisk” was to hear the shiur. And this is still what Brisk is about. People do not go there to hear what the people in bais medrash say, they go there to hear the shiur. And what is special about the shiur is the way in which they speak. Reb Chaim said that if something is missing in the hasbarah this means something is missing in the havnah. So what people get from the shiur is they learn how to speak precisely, measured and clearly. The shuir was what the purpose that bochurim went to Brisk going back to the Mirrer bochurim in Europe.
