TURF TODAY WITH FRANK ROSSI, PhD

We welcome Frank Rossi, PhD, turfgrass supporter and tenured professor at Cornell University, to Turf Today on the Superintendent Network. A writer, podcaster, teacher, and consultant, Frank seems to do it all as an academic.

Having worked closely with students, he understands their perspectives and how they engage with education and career opportunities today. He discusses the changing landscape of golf course maintenance, effective leadership within the profession, and strategies for maintaining a sustainable golf course with top-notch conditions while embracing new and emerging technologies.
