Carleton College provides about $600 to farmers' daughters. The University of Arizona offers $500 to any student with a 2.5 grade-point average-who also has roped calves in a rodeo. And the Union Pacific Railroad offers 300 scholarships of $400 each to students living in counties its trains pass...
