Peter Landschoot, professor of turfgrass science, retired this fall with emeritus status after serving as the resident turfgrass management specialist for Penn State Extension for 35 years. By all accounts, his work has had an impact both inside and outside the College of Agricultural Sciences.

Landschoot recently was honored by the Keystone Athletic Field Managers Organization, which presented him with the Fowler Founders Award at its annual conference. That award, named in memory of Donald Fowler, a Penn State Extension educator, recognizes individuals for their dedication to making a difference in the sports turf industry of Pennsylvania.
