I didn't realize he had a degree from Rutgers (or lived in So Brunswick)

This is quite a donation. His work is highly sought after and what he donated has to be worth several millions of dollars.

I remembered he lived in South Brunswick. It was much later I stopped confusing him with the actor of the same name.

Wow very cool. Rutgers has quite the history when it comes to the Pop Art movement. I also appreciated this detail of history in Segal's Wikipedia page.

"His location in central New Jersey also led to friendships with professors from the Rutgers University art department. Segal introduced several Rutgers professors to John Cage, and took part in Cage's legendary experimental composition classes."
