To the Editor:
JTA did not do its homework. For quite a while, The Jerusalem College of Technology has been training haredim as software engineers and other high-tech professions. The all-religious high-tech school of Israel has four colleges, two of which are specifically for haredi Orthodox (one men, one, women), and pioneered training them for positions suitable for their high levels of intellect.
This work is so important, not to mention it is negligence. The JCT success rate has been nothing less than historic and profound.
