Prominent Students
Rabbi Feinstein invested much time molding some of his select students to become leaders in Rabbinics and Halacha. Those students, over the years, spent countless hours a day serving as apprentices to their great Rabbi. Most are considered authorities in many areas of practical Halacha and Rabbinic and Talmudic academics. Some of those students are:
- Rabbi Nisson Alpert, (New York City)
- Rabbi J. David Bleich, (New York City)
- Rabbi Avrohom Blumenkrantz, (Far Rockaway, NY)
- Rabbi Dovid Feinstein, (New York), his son
- Rabbi Reuven Feinstein, (New York), his son
- Rabbi Moshe Dovid Tendler, (New York, NY), his son-in-law
- Rabbi Elimelech Bluth
- Rabbi Chaim Ganzweig

Famous quotes containing the words prominent and/or students:
“The soldier here, as everywhere in Canada, appeared to be put forward, and by his best foot. They were in the proportion of the soldiers to the laborers in an African ant-hill.... On every prominent ledge you could see England’s hands holding the Canadas, and I judged from the redness of her knuckles that she would soon have to let go.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“We must continually remind students in the classroom that expression of different opinions and dissenting ideas affirms the intellectual process. We should forcefully explain that our role is not to teach them to think as we do but rather to teach them, by example, the importance of taking a stance that is rooted in rigorous engagement with the full range of ideas about a topic.”
—bell hooks (b. 1955)
