Wikipedia description:

The Bernard Revel Graduate School of Jewish Studies was Yeshiva University’s first graduate school. Founded in 1937, it was named for Yeshiva University's first president, Bernard Revel, upon his death in 1940. Its curriculum prepares highly trained teachers, researchers, and scholars in Jewish studies and emphasizes the critical analysis of primary sources, studies in methodology, and extensive readings in secondary literature. Arthur Hyman was replaced as Revel's dean by David Berger in 2008, though he maintained the position of Distinguished Service Professor of Philosophy until his death in 2017. Berger was succeeded by Daniel Rynhold in 2020.
