Dear Dr. Lamm, I extend to you my sincere congratulations on being named President of Yeshiva University. Yeshiva University has long been a vital element of the educational fabric of our nation. The opportunity it provides to young Orthodox Jewish men and women to pursue both their secular and religious educations is an admirable achievement. The religious training your students receive helps instill the basic moral and human values to which our entire nation can look for guidance. May your tenure as President be as inspiring and successful as that of your predecessor, the late Dr. Samuel Belkin. I am certain it will be.Sincerely, Jimmy Carter Governor Jimmy Carter
