Study
at the Conservative Yeshiva focuses on traditional texts such as Talmud,
Tanach, and Midrash, and on Jewish philosophy and prayer. Learning is conducted
in the traditional yeshiva method (chevruta and shiur) with an openness
to modern scholarship and students' interests. The courses are taught by
the CY's outstanding faculty.
Advanced Students / Kollel
The Advanced Program is intended for students with a strong background in
traditional texts. The course of study includes Talmud with Rishonim, Tanach,
Philosophy, and Halacha. Classes are taught mostly in Hebrew by the CY faculty.
Stipends are available.
What's Special About the Advanced Program?
Students in the advanced program will have the opportunity to study in small
classes, specifically geared to expanding knowledge of commentaries as well
as text skills. Faculty members Rabbi Richard Lewis and Dr. Joshua Kulp
will work closely with each advanced student to design a course of study
appropriate to individual learning goals. Advanced students will also use
their skills to help other students and have the opportunity to offer shiurim
in subjects of interest.
Special Events/Shabbatonim
Throughout the year the CY has special days of learning and activities.
Sometimes these events are focused around a holiday and other times they
are focused on Israeli culture and life. Examples of special events include:
- Yom Iyun (Dedicated Learning) for Chanukah, Purim, Pesach, Shavuot,
Yom HaShoah and Yom HaZikaron
- Visit to the Israeli Supreme Court
- Tiyul to Neot Kedumim, a biblical landscape preserve
- Purim megillah reading and a student led Shpiel
- Shabbatonim - 3 or 4 weekends during the year which consist of a community
shabbat preceded by a trip to areas of interest around Israel
