Congratulations to Shira Singer-Nussbaum for having her “Letter to the Editor” published (by me)

This letter was written in jest and in no way reflects the true feelings of the author towards Tiferes Today

Dear Editor, While I am generally delighted to see and read the Tiferes Today, this issue troubled me. I was

appalled at how diminutive the article on Mishmeres was. Since the foundation of anything is based on, and continuously relies on, awareness of actions done bain adam le’chavairo, one would think that the front page article would be an article by Mishmeres. Not only was it not on the front page, but it was in a small box on the second page. I also thought that the cute “change the topic buttons” should have been posted all over Tiferes Today. The element that disturbed me a great deal was the fact that I feel like I know the editor personally. What I gather from her works is that she values growth done bain adam le’chavairo, and I gather that she has impeccable middos. I know that the editor usually has excellent judgement, so I will choose to let this infraction slide.

On a more positive note, I am thrilled to say that all of the issues of Tiferes Today are amazing. They are incredibly informative and well written. The editor must have a very strong English background, and she must also be brilliant. I especially liked the pictures this issue. I felt like I could almost see myself in them because of how clear the pictures are. The grad trip looked phenomenal. Whoever planned it must have had a lot of foresight and understanding of what graduates want to do. Good job on two amazing volumes of Tiferes Today. I hope to see many more, and to see the appropriate things on the front page.

Sincerely, Someone You Don't Know
