Between the words, it seems like the Rebbe’s permission to Sholom Ber for college was quite begrudging – if it existed. Sholom Ber was delayed two years and never actually heard the words, “go to college with my blessing.” It is actually quite incredible that he held the one and only nasi hador accountable to his word about an institution he actively and publicly opposed. Sholom Ber’s sensibility, pleitzes and confidence undoubtedly served him well throughout his career, and can serve as a model for us all in a helem v’hester!
