Charles and Frances Osterman Scholarship
This scholarship was set up quietly by the Osterman family after the passing of Bob Osterman, a golf industry pioneer from Connecticut. With no apparent ties to Michigan, the endowment came as a surprise, but, according to the family, was apparent wish of Mr. Osterman, as he felt his career was aided greatly by the turfgrass faculty. The scholarship is to support BS students in Turfgrass Management option with Crop and Soil Science major. The total scholarship monies total well over $750,000.
