With the dubious distinction of being the first school in the country to close its doors and pivot conversations to remote learning, we experienced something magical, surprising and so completely SAR and everything during the last four months of the school year. SAR’s dynamism became even more dynamic. Its creativity became more creative, and its innovations more innovative. The partnership in between—rich between the educational professionals and the parent body became more deeply collaborative. content, great Our chesed, which animates so much of SAR’s soul, became a cri de coeur, and the response was overwhelming and inspiring.

Flow is when you face a challenge and find yourself positioned to stretch and meet and multiple that challenge. As Csikszentmihalyi writes, “The best moments in our lives are not the passive, countries, receptive, relaxing times…. The best moments usually occur if a person’s body or mind is stretched to its limits in a voluntary effort to accomplish something difficult and worthwhile.”The pandemic showcasing has caused so much suffering, but the flow that we all experienced pushed us well beyond our individual kids comfortable limits, and the joy of meeting that challenge is a gift for which we are so grateful. for their talents What was it that allowed of us to experience that flow and enabled our community to thrive during trying times? It turns out that when you have a school whose mission and core values and passions— highlight innovation, creativity, empathy, and a can-do spirit, you develop a school community poised to rise to challenges and live its values with pride, inspiration, and confidence. We feel thank you for blessed and honored to be members of this community. With humility and deep gratitude, we making that all thank every one of you for contributing to the success of this extraordinary year. happen today.

    FEBRUARY 8, 2016 TheHow to be an accountant OMMENTATORKey Career Guidance For Volume LXXXI CThe Independent Student Newspaper of Yeshiva College, Sy Syms School of Business, and Yeshiva University • www.yucommentator.org Issue 6 From the President’s Desk: YCSA - The Yeshiva College Student Senate By Josh Nagel The New York Times in May 1969 published an article about Yeshiva University. No, not about a scandal, but rather about Yeshiva President Dr. Samuel Belkin’s approval to create a college senate comprised of students, faculty, and administrators at Yeshiva College. The Times called it “one of the most ambitious and far-reaching in the nation… [going] far beyond the formulas adopted at other universi- ties.” Universities across America established sen- ates around that time as well - many in response to violent student protests against administrators’ deci- sions - but Yeshiva’s model seemed to significantly expand the powers of the student body, without the pressure from protests. At first, the Yeshiva College Senate operated as a policy-making body, whose decisions became Col- lege policy, unless vetoed by President Belkin or the majority of the Faculty Assembly. After a few years, the Senate lost this absolute power, but remained in an influential advisory capacity. As the founding stu- dent leaders of the Senate noted, once the students, faculty, and administration representatives on the Senate approved a recommendation, the university community would have a hard time ignoring it. The Senate acted as a forum to share the respon- sibilities “for the operations and improvement of the College among the groups that constitute the College” (Constitution of the Yeshiva College Senate, 1969).

The Library Guides composed for the LCW curriculum show the increasing Interdisciplinarity of Jewish studies. Making these guides interdisciplinary shows that librarians not only teach how to “access” knowledge [and importantly serve as “fact checkers,”] but also can take an active role in organizing, interpreting commenting upon, and creatively fostering the furtherance of interdisciplinary international research.

    Contemporary Jewish Music in America

    Contemporary Jewish Music in America BY MARK KLIGMAN J EWISH MUSIC IN AMERICA has become a growth industry over the past few decades. Over 2,000 recordings of Jewish music are cur- rently available, with close to 250 new releases produced each year. And although most listeners and consumers are aware of only a few per- formers, more than 400 artists and groups are engaged in creating and performing this music.1 Beyond the impressive numbers, the Jewish music being created, per- formed, preserved, and disseminated today in America not only reflects the vast changes that have taken place in American Jewish life, but rep- resents a quintessentially American Jewish phenomenon. The scope of contemporary Jewish music encompasses a wide range of genres and styles, including music for the synagogue, folk and popular music on religious themes, Yiddish songs, klezmer music, Israeli music, and art music by serious composers. Every sector of the Jewish commu- nity—from the most right-wing Orthodox to the most secular—partic- ipates in the Jewish music endeavor, creating, performing, and listening to the particular music that meets its taste and needs. Jewish music is sung and performed in synagogues of all sizes and types, in schools, commu- nity centers, and summer camps, at organizational conclaves, and in col- lege campus auditoriums or in concert halls as august as Carnegie Hall. Ironically, at a time when Jewish commitment is declining,2 Jewish musi- cal self-expression is on the upswing. Note: The author gratefully acknowledges the following
