Rabbi Chaim Dalfin interviews Rabbi Rakeffet a Rosh Yeshiva at the Gruss YU Kollel in Jerusalem about the study of Chasidus at YU. Rabbi Rakeffet reminisces about the 54 years in Eretz Yisrael and his teachers at YU including being a prodigy student of HaRav Yosef Dovber Soloveitchik, The Rav. He mentions the great change in YU's attitude from his days there in the 1950s when a faculty member stopped a Tanya shiur.
