by Mordechai Fishman

The Commentator has learned that S. Daniel Abraham of the Slim-Fast Corporati on and namesake of the Yeshiva University Joint Israel Program, has agreed to donate ten million dollars to create an honors college at Stern while the Schottenstein family of Columbus, Ohio has agreed in principle to sponsor the same program for Yeshiva College.

by Chanan Hoschander

Marking the culmination of a summer of preparation, students at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine arrived at their apartments to find direct hardwired connections to the Internet.

Who's Watching You?

by Yehuda Burns

Over this past summer, the University's security department began installing a series of video cameras on the uptown campus. The cameras were placed both in clear view and in hidden locations throughout the campus. The new cameras promise to provide students with added security, but their presence on campus underscores the role security plays in daily life at YU.
