my experience with YU was 1 day long and i didnt stick around long enough to find out about different programs (in fact i was so upset i went straight home before the interview)
I found out later that there are different dorms. My YI Rabbi who wanted me to go there was disappointed and told me “of course I would have made sure you are in the better dorm”
But the guys I was visiting were frum. I was with the brother of one of them who was a friend of mine and they grew up in a more modern home in BP
That said
I do not deny there are good people there
I have had the pleasure of having some eat at my table on shabbos. I have had Stern girls who are indistinguishable from bais yaakov girls. I am just relaying my experience. BH it happened. It set me on a different path.
