Hello all! Hope everyone is enjoying their day. My name is Brock Miller and I am a senior in
Turf Science and Management. I am a
non-traditional turf student in that I come from a grain farm in Central
Illinois, which led me to agronomy, but my passion for the game of golf made
the turf program a perfect fit. I took
on the role as an agronomy ambassador in the spring of 2013. This has given me
a great since of pride being able to give back to a program that ultimately swayed
my decision to attend Purdue University.
I have also been President of Turf Club for the past three years as well
as a participant on the Collegiate Quiz Turf Bowl teams. Last summer I was selected for an internship
with the USGA Green Section where I traveled to numerous golf courses shadowing
the head agronomist for the USGA while he made suggestions to superintends on
how to improve their playing conditions.
This summer I will be staying on campus doing research at the Daniels
Turf Center. Following early graduation
I hope to attend graduate school and become an agronomist myself or take on a
sales position. That’s a little bit
about myself if you have any questions feel free to email me at mille926@purdue.edu. I’m looking forward to more posts in the
future and warmer weather!
