I was just checking out the schedule of events for the YU SOY seforim sale, which begins tomorrow, and it looks like there are going to be a great variety of programs and events to attend. During the next three weeks there will be shiurim, book signings, concerts, family events and even a stand up comedy show. The schedule in full can be seen at the seforim sale website by clicking
here, but I just wanted to list a few of the events that seemed of particular interest to myself:
- Rabbi Gil Student will be hosting a book signing Monday night, 1/25, at 7 PM
- Yaakov Chesed Live, at 8 PM Thursday night, 1/28
- YU Maccabeats Live, 6:30 PM 2/1 (see a video of one of their impressive acapella performances here)
- Proffesor Daniel Rynhold will be giving a lecture on "Why Does Medieval Jewish Philosophy Matter?" at 12:30 PM, Sunday 2/7
- Joel Chasnoff presents College Comedy Night at 7:30 PM on 2/10
In addition to those particular events the list of Rabbinim who will be giving shiurim is quite a compelling one and I guess the only thing that may keep me from attending all of them will be the other requirements that I must attend to as part of daily life. Here is a list of the shiurim that will be given:
- 1/24- Rabbi Norman Lamm (in conjunction with his new Haggadah) at 12 PM
- 1/25- Rabbi Mordechai Willig at 8 PM
- 1/27- Rabbi Zvi Sobolofsky at 8 PM
- 2/8 -Rabbi Eytan Feiner at 8 PM
- 2/14-Rabbi Yonoson Sacks at 2 PM
See you there!
It is so wonderful to see such excitement about a sforim sale. Enjoy it!
