A friend says: "Is a "trajectory of exceptional growth" the Modern Orthodox term for losing $110m?"
Here’s the letter:
Dear Yeshiva University Community:
This has certainly been both an extraordinary and unusual year. In spite of the economic turmoil, our university continues on its trajectory of exceptional growth and its advancement of humanity. Yet our ability to go further along on this path, and to provide a serious and uncompromising education to all of our students, is challenged by the times. Therefore, we are asking you, along with the entire Yeshiva University community, to help our deserving students and their families benefit from the exceptional education and unique experience YU provides.
Please join me, in whatever way you can, with a gift to the Annual Fund. Your gift, large or small, matters now, perhaps more than ever before. This support enables thousands of students to depend on Yeshiva University for a Torah education and a profound experience.
To make your gift now, please visit http://www.yu.edu/onlinegiving. Of course, giving the traditional way of writing a check before December 31st – and receiving a tax deduction – will be most welcome. Remember, as President Joel continues to remind us, we are part of something special-a rare institution committed to the integrated vision of Torah U’Madda. Our students carry our history and our destiny. It is up to us to ensure that they are fully equipped to lead and succeed.
