Op-Ed: Why Ban a Fundraiser Auction?

This past Motzaei Shabbos, Keren Simchas Chasson V’kallah held a Melave Malka and Chinese auction. Oholei Torah chose to ban the event for students of the Zal at threat of expulsion. Certainly, no student should ever disregard the orders of the Hanholo, with or without threats of expulsion. Further, when the Hanholo permits a Bochur to attend, it is self understood that he can only attend after Seder HaYeshivah. I am quite surprised at the Hanholo’s decision however, because the evening had a lot to offer.

NEW YORK [WABC] — A combination of two weather systems will roll into the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic States later today and tonight.

The feature which is the stronger of the two, a low pressure system, is destined to slide along the Southeast Coast and exit the East Coast late tonight via the Carolinas.

NEW YORK — The girls of Troop 3131 are just like those at any of the hundreds of thousands such groups around the world: They wear uniforms, earn merit badges, and at last Sunday’s troop meeting over an art project devoted to a recent holiday, told each other about powerful women in their families.

The family of Rabbi Zalman Liberow, who was badly injured in the tragic accident that killed his son Avrohom Dovid and Pesha Leah Azoulai, were somewhat disappointed to hear of a setback in his condition.

While eagerly awaiting his return to NY, his recovery seems to have taken a slight step backwards. While doctors are working hard to improve his condition, the hope for a return to NY this week seems to have faded away.
