Abstract/Contents: | Suggests that "experiential learning and networking are key components in effectively preparing turfgrass students for the real world." Focuses on a trip that students from Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College (ABAC) in Tifton, Georgia took to Guangzhou, China. Reports that "the ABAC turf team presented a program on golf course planning, construction, and maintenance at Nansha Golf Club in partnership with Sun Yat-sen University, China. The course of study in golf turf management was presented to 32 Chinese golf club managers and 22 Chinese students." Concludes that "China is booming in golf development and offers many opportunities in career development, as well as simply playing the game of golf." |
