He earned his B.A. in Music from Macalester College in 1982, his M.A. from the University of Minnesota in 1989, and his PhD in Ethnomusicology from Wesleyan University in 2000. Under his direction, the Music Technology program has seen significant growth behind his ability to adapt to and teach new technologies. He has also overseen the design and construction of the NWC recording studio, which has helped establish the NWC music program as one of the most respected in the region.
Rumbolz is an invaluable resource for the campus, volunteering his time and services for numerous events and programs as a technician, director, or performer. The additional service to the college also provides many more opportunities for students to learn the craft, all with guidance and instruction from Rumbolz in actual event settings without sacrificing quality. As a result of his tutelage, NWC Music Technology graduates have been able to move confidently into industry jobs, as well as successfully transfer into bachelor’s degree programs.
Along with regular technical support across campus, Rumbolz has served on nearly every NWC and Faculty Organization standing committee, several task forces, and served as Faculty Organization President. He has provided a steady, calm voice of reason, with an ability to see issues from multiple perspectives.
