Rabbinical/Semicha Program
For students accepted into the Semicha program they are required to spend three-years studying Halacha in the afternoons in addition to their morning seder of Gemara. The three years usually consist of: Shabbat, Nidah, and Issur v'Heter. Other classes include Hashkafa (Jewish Philosophy) and Practical Rabbinics. A mandatory b'keiyut program in Talmud was instituted beginning with the 2008-2009 year.

Famous quotes containing the word program:
“Mead had studied for the ministry, but had lost his faith and took great delight in blasphemy. Capt. Charles H. Frady, pioneer missionary, held a meeting here and brought Mead back into the fold. He then became so devout that, one Sunday, when he happened upon a swimming party, he shot at the people in the river, and threatened to kill anyone he again caught desecrating the Sabbath.”
