As a graduate of Solomon Schechted who still has to deal with questions of emunah 25 years after finishing that farkokte school because of the garbage kefira I was fed in there, I ask that you please do not mention that miserable organization in the same breath as a moisad of kedusha like Torah uMesorah. Torah uMesorah was IIRC founded by R’ Shraga Feivel Mendelowitz ZTL whereas those behind the Schechted network are tiff, tiff in der erd. Out of everyone who was in my high school, every grade, when I graduated, I am one of FOUR shomrei Shabbos (myself and one more Lubavitcher and 2 MO) and there are far more who have intermarried than us four.

If some of the smaller shuls would combine (leaving a couple of real shtiblach with real rabbonim or Rebbes who do better with a smaller group for those who want a very intimate atmosphere) it would not be so bad.

And if the number of government departments were reduced by 70% it would be great for all but the worst of the Affirmative Action drones who could never find work in the private sector doing anything but pushing a broom instead of pushing a pen.
