Take One; Ketubot 69

Today’s Talmud page, Ketubot 69, tells us a riveting story about Jews and higher education, a fraught topic even in ancient times. Mark Oppenheimer, host of the new podcast Gatecrashers, a look at the history of Jews in Ivy League universities, joins us with a sneak preview of his new show. Why do Jews continue to obsess over schooling? Listen and find out. Take One is a Tablet Studios production. The show is hosted by Liel Leibovitz, and is produced and edited by Darone Ruskay and Quinn Waller. Our team also includes Stephanie Butnick, Josh Kross, Mark Oppenheimer, Sara Fredman Aeder, Robert Scaramuccia, and Tanya Singer.  Check out all of Tablet’s podcasts at tabletmag.com/podcasts.
