Cat Benson, dean of the Ketner School of Business, was part of a video series that
was recently featured on the home page of the PGA Magazine website.
The video on pgamagazine.com is one of the website’s newest short-form videos featuring award-winning PGA of America golf professionals.
In the video, Benson talks about the importance of mentoring and having tough conversations. It can be viewed at https://read.nxtbook.com/ggrw/pga_magazine_production/pga_productions_video_archive/new.html.
Benson was interviewed for the project during the 2025 Golf Professional of the Year Conference at Bandon Dunes (Oregon) Golf Resort in November.

When their son Parker received his diploma from Trine University President Earl D. Brooks II, Ph.D., at this year’s May Commencement, it was a full-circle moment for Stephen and Brooke Pelletier.
Golfers and sponsors at Trine University’s 36th annual Alumni and Friends Golf Outing contributed a record amount for student scholarships, raising $115,000 at the Aug. 7 event.
It may sound like all fun and games, but two Trine University faculty members gave academic presentations during North America’s largest board gaming convention.
