Left-Handed Scholarships

Approximately 10% of the population is left-handed. There are many rumors and whisperings of scholarships for left handed people. This is one of many wacky scholarship opportunities for physical attributes that can be found.

In this case though, the only verified left-handed scholarship is to Juniata College in Huntingdon, PA. This scholarship offers $1000 to left handed students.

In my opinion I think this scholarship is very interesting and helpful to a left-handed person like myself. I'vealways heard "left-handed peopleare backwards, not smart etc" but it isnt true. I thank whoever came up with this bright idea honestly because i didnt know i was among 10% of people that are lefty's.

Well, i wasnt aware that all 10% went to Juniata College =( A left handed scholarship should be available to other colleges.

Yes I'm left-handed,so what! I'm proud to be a lefty we're special.... but in a good way. I'm glad that they actually have a scholarship for something like this it's about time that left-handed people was giving some kind of recognition.

Why is the left handed scholarship only for those who attend Juniata. Why can't it be for those who attend Grambling State or something.

My name is Hope Baumbach and I'm Left Handed and I am SOOOOOO VERY PROUD OF IT!! I love being left handed! Being a statistic of 1 out of 10 in a group gives me that little feeling and proof that says "See, you are unique in your own little ways"
I WANT THE LEFT HANDED SCHOLARSHIP! :)

even thought i'm left handed i get by life fairly. At school i some times have a hard time writing because of the way they make the tables. Also notebook and folders have been a pain when the sprial part gets into your way. I love to cook to and sometimes its a hastle because all the tools you use for cookin is made for right handers and you just have to adapt to it

I think that is wonderful, like im left handed so that makes me feel special lol. It like there are so many scholarships out there for the craziest things and this is just another one. There is the one scholarship for any catholic person with the last name Zoop, so i dont see anything wrong with the left handed scholarships.

I think that having a scholarship for left-handed people is awesome. Since there is only a few of us why not, have something just for the lefties

I am happy to be in that ten percent of left handed people. They always make a comment and say that we are backwards, but it pays off now.

There should be more left handed scholarships. Left handed people have to live in a right handed world and overcome obstacles that result from them not being right handed.

Coya said:

i feel as if there should be a scholarship for left handed people because of the fact that this is a right handed world and the fact that left handed people have a bigger challenge to face because everything is made for right handed people.

So glad to know this as I had heard for years there were scholarships for left-handed persons!

I am left handed myself. It's cool that there is a scholarship for the lefties. However, there should be way more scholarships, not just the one for Juniata College. People say that the lefties are smarter and think quicker than right handers. It is TRUE!!!!

I am a lefty and I love it!!!! It's bout time we got some recognition and love!! I believe more schools should offer the left-handed scholarship!!! I know as a senior I need it!!!
