Yeshiva University has a long history of tolerating extreme left-wing views and activities on campus (while showing little tolerance for extreme right-wing views). To cite just two examples: It employed a transgender professor for 15 years and continues to employ a Bible(!) professor who advocates ignoring the Torah's views on homosexuality. Can YU therefore continue to call itself a Torah institution? Jonathan Gross, formerly a rabbi in Omaha, Nebraska (who sold chametz to Warren Buffett), and today a civil rights attorney, joins the program to discuss this question. Books by Rabbi Jonathan Gross:

AI Vey: Jewish Thoughts on Thinking Machines

Values Investing: An Omaha Rabbi Learns Tor ah From Warren Buffett

One of the books YU banned from its Seforim Sale:

Kahane on the Parsha: Over 100 Divrei Torah on War, Faith, and the Future of the Jewish State

The subject of Elliot Resnick's canceled lecture:

America First: The Story of Sol Bloom, the Most Powerful Jew in Congress During the Holocaust
