New York, N.Y. – June 18, 2015 - With two young children at home and another on the way, Moshe Alpert already knows a bit about fatherhood. But, of course, it is one thing to co-parent a busy family, and quite another to do it while attending college full time.   

LCM recently hosted a yeshiva-wide luncheon to bid farewell to Rabbi Josh Sturm, assistant to the Menahel and coordinator of admissions and community programming.

On the morning of May 31, 2015, Lander College for Men (LCM) graduates celebrated their upcoming Commencement with family and friends at the awards ceremony and banquet for the class of 2015.

Act as an ambassador of Torah to the rest of the world. Let the values you've learned at LCM guide you throughout your life. Remember the power of making observations and asking good questions. The faculty and staff of Lander College for Men share their advice with the class of 2015. Congratulations, graduates!

On May 26th, LCM held a gala siyum to honor the thirty talmidim who completed the entire Maseches Kiddushin over the course of this past year. The night seder initiative, which began this past September, was spearheaded by Rabbi Dovid Mirsky and kollel member Ben Yachzel.  At the siyum, each honoree received a copy of R’ Sacks’ sefer, V’higita Bo Yomam Valayla, as a gift.

On the heels of the Lag Ba’Omer festivities came this year’s annual Camp Dora Golding Shabbaton, which was as fun-filled and active as ever.

This past week, Lander College for Men (LCM) held its annual awards ceremony to recognize outstanding athletes in LCM’s intramural basketball and football leagues. The following athletes received awards presented by Irv Bader, Touro College’s Director of Athletics:

LCM talmidim celebrated the eve of Lag Ba’Omer with singing, dancing, and bonfires with R’ Bamberger. The next day, basketballs and footballs went flying as inter-shiur sports competitions got underway. (Even R' Mirsky joined in, with his shiur teammates!) Students in R’ Sacks’ shiur creamed both competitions, winning dinner at the restaurant of their choice as their prize.

Over 80 alumni returned to Lander College for Men for its first-ever Back-to-Yeshiva Week, a four-day program of chizuk and socializing with former rebbeim and classmates.

Last year, LCM’s annual Student Government (SGO) elections showed the highest voter turnout to date. This year, twenty undergraduate students—the highest number of candidates running in the history of the school—ran for office. (“It’s indicative of how highly engaged our students are in the school,” remarked Dean Moshe Sokol regarding the stats, “when ten percent of the student body wants to serve on student government.”)
