"He spent an awful lot of time in his room with the door shut," Gresham says of Fineberg. "He was a very sociable guy, but he really worked hard."
But although he worked hard, Harvey was more than just a student. He was an accomplished musician who played both the trumpet and the piano.
He also decided to join the band.
It was there that he met David Rose '67, a fellow trumpet player and psychology concentrator who would be his roommate during junior and senior year.
"We were in a section together and ended up doing a paper together, which I have to say because of my influence was probably the lowest grade of Harvey's career," Rose says.
The two became closer when they both ended up in Lowell House--Fineberg's first choice of residence in pre-randomization days.
When they both took an introductory psychology course that met at 9 a.m., Rose was contracted to wake Fineberg up in time to get there.
