PGM faculty and students spoke to University Club members about the highlights of the program, one of twenty accredited PGA Golf Management programs in the nation. After lunch and the presentation, a small course was set up where University Club members could practice their putts. Two PGM students provided guidance to improving club members’ techniques.
