Dear Rabbi Lamm: The entire Ponevez Yeshiva and its more than 1000 scholars is indeed privileged to convey to you heartiest congratulations on your appointment to the eminent position of Chancellor of Yeshiva University. You have, for many years, been a close and devoted friend of Ponevez and helped in its growth. You have, during the years, also given much effort and deep concern to the Jewish youth; the thousands who have been under your influence these many years and added to the growth of Torah in America. We extend best wishes that your efforts in Yeshiva University be met with every success and that you go “Me’Chayil El Chayil” in the further growth and spread of our Torah and tradition.
