Rodeo Scholarships BARREL RACING AND BULL RIDING AT COLLEGE
It may come as a surprise to learn that not only is rodeo an
organized sport in some colleges, but there are also scholarships
available to support students who are involved in that acvity.
Many of these scholarships are designed not for rodeo stars, but
for rodeo contributors who show a genuine love for the sport. As
one scholarship applicaon from Northeastern Junior College put it,
“e wouldn’t be saying much about the uality of academics if we
pulled your scholarship if you missed a calf, knocked over a barrel,
or fell o of a bull,” which perfectly expresses the plain-spoken spirit
of collegial parcipaon desired.
