Gemara - The Beis Medrash course schedule emphasizes
primarily the study of Gemara (Talmud). The schedule is divided into three
main blocks of learning time,
or sedorim. The morning seder is designated for in-depth study, iyun.
The afternoon and night sedorim are both devoted toward the acquisition
of a more comprehensive body of knowledge at a quicker pace, bekiyus.
There are also 45 minutes a night allocated for the Beis Medrash to
assist the younger high school students with reviewing their daily Gemara
shiurim
(classes).
Mussar - The Yeshiva stresses the importance of mussar (character improvement)
in the development of a Ben Torah. In addition to the daily Mussar seder,
there are two shmuessin (lectures) given each week. On Wednesday nights,
the Mussar shmuess is given by Rabbi Rauch. On Shabbos, the shmuess is given
by Rabbi Zachai or another member of the hanhala. There is a special Mussar
chaburoh (group) given by Rabbi Rauch on Thursday afternoons.
Halacha - Every morning there is a halacha seder using the Sefer Mishna
Berura as a text. On Monday and Wednesday afternoons, there is a seder in
hilchos Loshon Hora, using Sefer Chofetz Chaim as a text.
College Program - While maintaining the integrity of providing a full three-seder
day for the talmidim, the Yeshiva has arranged a part-time college program
in conjunction with Marquette University. Marquette is located in downtown
Milwaukee, a ten-minute drive from the Yeshiva. Talmidim are permitted to
take two evening courses per semester. Marquette accepts up to 65 Yeshiva
credits towards a degree. The Yeshiva credits, combined with college credits,
allow a talmid to graduate in a very timely fashion.
