Was the Yale logo stolen from the Jews? A prank call to Yale University 

It took a moment for me to get it... 😅

colors belong to everyone

Well, it could be serious. Both Time magazine and Nat. Geographic have threatened suits for using the red or the gold that they use to frame their magazines. Other companies have also, though I can't remember which.

Caucasians claim the letter N

Hamlindigo Blue moment

Yes. Much better then the Harvard dude for sure

That was my first thought too. Even felt bad for the uni😅

Seriously. This was just lame.

its bs. its not a real call. nobody has a conversation as clear and consistent as that.

No, she was polite and respectful. The correct response was "Heil Hadrian!" then abruptly hang up the phone.

Lol Princeton should be next.

Of course, cause they speak English

@@sharonefee1426 😂. Of course you are right. I realized that when I posted it because the offices of Yale and Harvard speak English. I chose not to edit it. But in thumbing through all the other videos, they are in Hebrew, so that is what I had in mind. These creators are so cleaver I’m tempted to learn Hebrew just to listen. 😉

Try UPenn first! (Pro tip: the caller should repeatedly refer to them as Penn State.)

​@@ejb7969😂😂😂

She made up a meaning. 😅 Many don't know what it says

No man it just sounds like that in Hebrew, the real meaning of the phrase is a person who's an expert/very skilled in a certain field (or something like that)

urim ve tumim are 2 stones. black and white. it's from a story in the torah. it doesnt mean what she said she was making fun of the yale representative

AFAIK, it’s closer to “integrity” in this Toranic context. which is no less hilarious :)

It means "Truth"

You can hear the fear of congressional hearings in her voice 😂🤣

​@@B01 judging from how well she actually handled this call, I think she probably would have handled the hearing infinitely better than those clowns who can't even accept responsibility for their abhorrent actions. Harvard and MIT are still holding on, aren't they? How can you say in front of the world that you'd only take action against calls for genocide against Jews when they cross over into action, and double down on that when given the opportunity right then and there and think you can hold onto your office?

@@kayjay7585 assuming that was said just to say it, since I clearly am not the intended target of that speech as I couldn't be more of a Zionist, physically or mentally COULD NOT be more lol But...now for some comic relief, check out the Hogwarts parody of the congressional hearings, promise it's worth the watch lol

She was very kind and the joke wasn’t about her. It’s just about exposing how every majority but the Jews gets to have protection.

I wonder if that's because Yale is in Connecticut and Harvard is in Massachusetts. You know the people of Massachusetts proudly call themselves "Mass-holes." That was shocking to me, like they are actually pleased with being jerks? 🤷‍♀️ Different states, different cultures.

@@happygolucky9004 have you ever met a New-Yorker ?

@@rainman1242 Yeah, I live in Connecticut and go to New York on weekends occasionally. Met plenty of New Yorkers and I think mass-holes are worse.

@@happygolucky9004 " I think mass-holes are worse." whoa that must be something then :-)

Jewes is historically derogatory term.

@@TheEntilza I believe we're allowed to reclaim it. Though if it's currently being used this way I might stand corrected.

Dude couscous and ptitim are two different things

@@user-gd9bg1bm4cthat’s the point. Israeli cuscus is ptitim. That is the dish in the video.

Read that again, thats what he is saying: "Israeli cuscus", as it was called in Yale is Ptitim which are in fact Israeli@@user-gd9bg1bm4c

Agreed. I guess she should choose a better boss to work for 🤓

She was very gracious. She deserves to work in a better place.

Perhaps she could head up a new department of graciousness and decorum..

@@Kranebitter81 Or replace the university’s president. Empathy is the highest virtue and seems she had it in spades.

She deserve a better workplace!

No, the roots of those words do mean light and innocent

@@ruthhorowitz7625 לא, זה כנראה מלשון "ארור ותמים" בהתייחס לשימוש שנעשה בהם כדי לחרוץ משפט. אבל... לעולם לא נדע. זה דבר שאפילו כשכתבו את הסיפור כבר היה שם של חפץ עתיק שמקבלים כפי שהוא ומשתמשים בהרחבה.

@@user-bv7tr6kz1x תמיד חשבתי שהם סוג של מלאכים.

@@user-bv7tr6kz1x This being said, the official translation "Lux et veritas" is part of the logo, right there on the wall. Which makes the whole thing even funnier.

I too caught that that took me back too many years ago the leathermen scissors raptor. The handles were like a high vise orange and somebody had a patent on that color so Leatherman keep one of the handles high vise orange that’s the way it was explained to me I would’ve never thought they had a patent on a color.

In my predominantly Jewish high school (back in 1975) a friend applied to Harvard, Yale and U of Chicago. He received an automatic rejection from Harvard. A few weeks later he received an acceptance to Yale. We all laughed about it because we knew Harvard rejected him because they had met their quota of new Jewish students, but obviously Yale had not. There have always been quotas to the ivy league schools for all minorities, including Jews.

About time.😅

you seem to forget that right now Israel is commiting a genocide? do you condem the IDF?

@@dickschlau3592 There is no genocide. Only despicable chants by pro-Hamas [protesters] calling for the genocide of Jews across the world.

​@@dickschlau3592completely unrelated.

Egg rolls?

She need better boss. Real problem is not menu but multiple anti-semits in university including not only studens but rectors and no response from administration. Some other respected universities even answered to"do call fore genocide of jews violates youre rules" - "depends on contex, if it is not aimed in person its ok".

I didn't get it then. And since I'm of fan of getting things hidden please enlighten me?

Me too

@@AtomkeySinclair The second Hebrew word of the Yale motto, which is tumim, has an uncertain meaning which has been highly debated among rabbis. The root of the word has the same root of the Hebrew word for innocent. So the joke was that she was claiming ownership of the Hebrew phrase when nobody really knows exactly what the word even means.

@Mfhollander2 Excellent, and thank you for the rabbit hole to explore on the word tumim. Much appreciated for the knowledge.

Thanks so much for explaining this mate - I knew it was some sort of inside gag, but my knowledge Hebrew is rubbish! Is this to do with the high priest’s ’Urim and thummim’? Or does it just sound like it?

They should have that slogan for 5 years as penance for their woke ignorance. ps "slogan" is from the Irish language...you can't use that word either, Preppie.

@@aquinasish8277 thanks for that tidbit of info. I didn't know that about the word "slogan".

Please translate!!! 🙏

@@elenaherwagen3529 "anachnu universita tipsha" means "we are a stupid university". It's playground humour but it fits in to the skit pretty well.

@@yasminni485 😂😂😂 Thank you!

Most Americans support palestine, the establishment loves IL because it makes them money. Then they show you how good IL is on MSM that only the gullible elderly fall for these days.

This doesn’t sound like a prank call Israelis genuinely get offended by shit like that

😂😂this is not a prank call bro. And you love the country that killed your saviour. Crazy

Israelis believe any crap they are fed. The IDF killed many hostages and then come up with crazy unbelievable stories. A female 19years old soldier’s hiding location was bombed, IDF said her captors were killed but she survived, (miracle) and was then rushed to hospital by other Hamas militants only to be executed there!🤨 …. Now it says that the three shirtless hostages it killed survived were free because they survived a bombing that killed their captors! 🫤 I bet you believe in the mythical rape stories?

מדוע היהודים מסרבים להכיר בכך שדניאל היה נביא?

Bro, what made you stop laughing, you sound so ominous

@@neoieo5832 He means the festival incident, of course.

@@mrtee3988 oh yeah, I wondered why October 7 was so familiar

Ancient hebrew is hard to definitively translate to english but the literal definition is closest to innocence. The phrase itself as a whole rarely translated as it is the name of a tangible thing that would light up with the truth

@@princessglitterbutt5984I kind of thought that “Lights and Perfection” was what that translated to, but that is based off of teachings about the Old Testament, and usually they ended the topic with “we have no idea exactly what happened, but it was a way for the Priest to get a literal DIRECT answer from YHWH”.

⁠​⁠@@redlandz1977 ​​⁠ Like I said it’s hard to translate ancient Hebrew to English, the root of “tumim”, “תם”, is translated as mild mannered, a child that can’t talk yet, an innocent, and yes perfection. It’s definitely not “truth” bc the root of that is “אמת”. And yeah no one knows exactly what it was but according to the popular opinion it caused letters to light up on the choshen spelling out Gds words.

One of their best old-timey Lampoon stunts was in 1921 or 1923 when they stole part of the Old Yale Senior Fence upon which the Captains of the Football team would pose for their team picture and had their elderly janitor, Robert "Lampoon" Steward pose in his kilt on it for a photo in their gameday magazine program. Another was around 1925 when they kidnapped their bulldog mascot (usually named "Handsome Dan (with a Roman numeral after it as each offspring dog kept the name) and photographed it licking the foot of the bronze John Harvard statue in front of University Hall (after putting dogfood on it).

*high f-art

But that logo is much older than Israel.

@@ratulxy The logo is older than the state of Israel, but it's not older than Jewish culture. And, this video was about cultural appropriation. Not national appropriation. Thus, your comment is irrelevant.

@@neilmanhard1341 yeah! I kind of don't care. If anything, I agree that they should remove the hebrew coat of arms and use something better.

@@neilmanhard1341How about Isreal give back all the foreign aid they have been appropriating.

​@@ratulxyolder than Muhammad and his horde

Yale students did prank Harvard football fans about a decade ago by posing as a fictitious "cheer spirit squad" and handed out selected colored cards for the fans to hold up as a card stunt at the appropriate time telling them it was going to say "Go Harvard" or something to that effect but it really said "WE SUCK!" and the Yale fans were rolling in their seats in laughter. Then a few years later some Harvard students posing as Yale student tour guides showed a bunch of prospective high school students around with their parents showing where most students get murdered and never ceasing pointing out "gothic architecture".... and the group did not even batt an eyelash!!! Both pranks are on youtube.

no one is shaming the secretary, just the university itself. The secretary was super nice =)

Wish her find better boss.
