jphone said: “I am willing to bet that most YWN bloggers never heard of the “most popular” Ner Yisroel musmach, (nor should they care to – as this person became the head of the JTS) popular in the sense that more people heard of him than probably, lihavdil elef havdalos R” Ruderman Z’l himself.”
Cherrybim’s response: Are you sure about your “head of the JTS” comment? Who would that be?
To Azi: I assume that it’s not true because Ner Israel is only around since 1933 and there haven’t been too many chancellors at JTS since that time. So going down the list is a pretty simple m’tzios to verify.
Perhaps, the closest thing to what was claimed by jphone may be that R’ Shaul Lieberman of JTS learned in Slabodke with Rav Ruderman and Rav Hutner.
