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:
“Columbus stood in his age as the pioneer of progress and enlightenment. The system of universal education is in our age the most prominent and salutary feature of the spirit of enlightenment, and it is peculiarly appropriate that the schools be made by the people the center of the day’s demonstration. Let the national flag float over every schoolhouse in the country and the exercises be such as shall impress upon our youth the patriotic duties of American citizenship.”
—Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)
“American universities are organized on the principle of the nuclear rather than the extended family. Graduate students are grimly trained to be technicians rather than connoisseurs. The old German style of universal scholarship has gone.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
