Sheva Tauby, shlucha and director of iVolunteer in New York, spoke at Stern College Tuesday along with a distinguished panel of presenters about Jewish women and entrepreneurship.
“Women of Vision” is a program implemented in Stern College for girls to learn from successful Jewish women and their entrepreneurial paths.
The other speakers/presenters were Bracha Rutner, a yoetzet halacha, Dr. Nicole B. Schreiber-Agus, a genetic counselor and professor of genetics, and Michelle Greenberg-Kobrin, the dean of Columbia Law School.
Tauby spoke about her founding the iVolunteer organization, a visitation program that sends volunteers to the homes of Holocaust survivors, and her position in the nonprofit world which includes iVolunteer NY, iVolunteer FL (ivolunteerFL) and iVolunteer Toronto ivolunteertoronto). She spoke as a role model – a committed Jewish woman who is successful in her field.
The purpose was to share her personal and professional experience that would be helpful to students who are beginning their own educational and professional journeys.
Following the presentation there was a question and answer period. It created a lively discussion and was a true success.
While I won’t even bother to begin to assess what disturbs you so much about Sten College or anyone else associated with selecting Sheva Tauby to speak, but I sense jealousy. Credentials you ask? Yeshiva University considered Sheva’s credentials to be strong enough to be speaking to their students, I highly doubt they have any regard for your opinion. At a point and time when you will be organizing an event – you are more than welcome to invite whom ever you want and YU will not be criticizing your decisions. – From a proud Stern alumna
Go
Zalmy Tauby!

I would think that running a not-for-profit is actually tougher kind of entrepreneurship. You have to make it work while still dealing with all the rules and regs that are involved. You still have to find a niche, pull resources together, market, and stay competitive. Shame on you for “dissing” such a smart and talented woman. And yes, she comes from a way cool family!

Shes the most amazing person Ive met
Shame on u
correction:
Michelle Greenberg-Kobrin holds the title of Dean of Students at Columbia Law School. the Dean is David Schizer.
Cool Fam.
Women and entrepreneurship?
Since when does running a non-profit organization make you an entrepreneur?
There are women here in CH that are actual entrepreneurs, and would be more suitable to speak on behalf of Jewish women in business.
Go Sheva! Love your shadchan!
