Poetry! Fellow Beit Midrashers, I was so proud of this that I had to
share it with all of you. This is inspired by Ethan's tidbit on Monday
[June 2, at the siyyum] about Mupim, Chupim, and Ard. If you are
unfamiliar with the poem on which this is based (though I'm hopeful that
at least some of you are), please see
http://www.baseball-almanac.com/poetry/po_sad.shtml. "I just wanted to write to tell you how awesome the Beit Midrash is. I can't remember the last time I enjoyed studying Torah this much -- the environment is truly pluralistic and truly non-competitive. I was hesitant at first about whether I could make time in my week for the Beit Midrash, but it is quickly becoming one of the highlights of my week -- intellectually and socially." -- From an email from a participant "Jewish learning happens person to person, in and out of and around texts. DC Beit Midrash fosters a phenomenal learning environment; encouraging all kinds of study, creating a welcoming study space, providing an opportunity for Jews of all backgrounds to participate in this essential, enriching, and joyous aspect of Judaism." -- Testimonial from a participant "Finishing college and moving to a new city and work life leaves an intellectual void - no text analysis, no seminar discussion. So DC Beit Midrash bridges that gap, keeps the mind stimulated, brain exercised, spirit healthy, friends near." -- Testimonial from a participant Comments or concerns about the website should be directed to website@dcbeitmidrash.org.
