Students in Harvard/NEC Program Juggle Music and Academics

Ouside of class, Dockterman and Rabinowitz use their free time to pursue interests beyond music.

Dockterman was a member of the varsity squash team and is currently one of the captains of the club tennis team. He is also actively involved in his fraternity, Sigma Alpha Epsilon. Rabinowitz is a director for Circle of Women.

On the other hand, Morrin spends most of his time in music, keeping himself busy with recording sessions, frequent performances, and projects with vocalists and other instrumentalists.

Dockterman says he intends to attend medical school and then pursue a Ph.D., rather than pursuing a career in music.

While Morrin says he is still unsure whether he will pursue a musical career after graduation, he says that the experience of studying at NEC has helped him to gain a deeper understanding of the music world. “I don’t really know what my future will be,” he says. “I think it’s more important what I get exposed to.”

Although Rabinowitz has a passion for global health and is interested in attending medical school as well, she hopes to continue composing.

“I know composition will always be part of my life,” she said.
