Abstract/Contents:Focuses on student internships, stating that "the topic of student internships is common during Turfgrass Advisory Service visits and at many educational conferences throughout the year." Continues to detail the difficulty in communications between potential interns and golf clubs, as well as other factors that may contribute to the quality of their internship. Provides recommendations for students, student advisors, superintendents, and future employers. Concludes that "the best candidates [for internships] are generally those who have demonstrated the capability to perform a variety of duties and crafted a broad skill set."
