Anxiety and Hope
I'm pretty nervous about tomorrow's interview.
On the other hand, the dean of admissions just told me that he's rooting for me, the dean of the rab school has wished me good luck, and the second and third years' dean keeps checking in on me. Oh, and one of the rabbis on my committee is one of my teachers and the rabbi who really encouraged him to come to the seminary is the father-in-law of one of my favorite teachers from Hebrew High, who is, with his wife, one of two families in the conservative shul at home who have ever had me over for a shabbos or yontif meal. I write all this to try and calm myself down.
I really need a good question to ask my committee when they're done asking me questions. So far my list of potential questions is as follows: asking for a piece of advice, or asking what they'd want me to take away from this year at JTS, regardless of whether or not I get in.
