Cantor Wohlberg asked:
> BTW, who was the Rosh Yeshiva of the Yeshiva of Shem and Ever?

There is a timeline on pp 596-7 of Vol 3 of The Torah Anthology. It gives an awful lot of dates, including these: (All wordings and spellings theirs)

2085: Isaac enters Shem's academy
2121: Jacob goes to academy
2158: Shem dies; Jacob returns from academy
2171: Jacob goes to Eber's academy
2187: Eber dies

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that the academy was headed by Shem and Ever.
