In 1972, he received the [[Ph.D.]] from UT in [[botany]] and cell biology. He has also done post-doctoral work at [[Iowa State University]] in Ames, [[Iowa]].

In 2009, Professor Rogers received the designation "Teacher Who Made A Difference" from the College of Education at the [[University of Kentucky]] in Lexington. He was nominated for the honor by a former student, Christy Anderson Martin, who graduated from Campbellsville University in 1991, and is employed in Russell County by the UK College of Agriculture Extension Service. Martin said of Rogers, her CU professor and advisor, "His kindness and genuineness over those years meant the world to me. He was always available to all of his students to give advice or just to listen to our success stories or distresses/concerns. ... He always honored his students' unique qualities and supported the career paths that we chose to take."
