Rabbi Herschel Lustig was the dean of Oholei Torah Yeshiva, the largest Chabad boys school in America, for more than forty years and today serves as the Dean Emeritus.
In this episode, he shares his own personal background of how his family came to Lubavitch and how he studied in different yeshivos before coming to 770.
He shares memories from the formative years of Oholei Torah yeshiva that began as a very small cheder, and the input he received from the Lubavitcher Rebbe and Rabbi Hodakov in how to build a new kind of school with old home values but in America.
