My brother Melvyn Goldfinger majored in neuroscience at Rutgers, but he minored in trombone, a degree that was created just for him. Mel played 8 instruments and even taught himself the viola which he played in a string quartet. He participated in every musical event that he could find at Rutgers in addition to playing Dixieland trombone with “My Father’s Mustache” at some bar in New Brunswick.
