I'm trying to get a second, third, fourth, etc opinion on reducing the requirements for an ATP certificate.
Meaning that you'll keep asking the question until someone agrees with you

I got my bachelor's in urban policy with a concentration (not minor) in Aviation and Transportation. Additionally I got a Master's from Embry Riddle in Aeronautical Science.
Good stuff. Where did you do your flight training?

From what I understand you can reduce from 1500 down to 1000 for ATP if you went to an aviation college. I asked the FSDO in ATL and he says that it has to have been an actual Aviation program, not just a random aviation degree.

This seems unreasonable considering the curriculum at Embry riddle is probably very similar if not identical to the ones in the other aviation colleges.
That doesn't seem reasonable to you?

What doesn't seem reasonable to me is reducing the requirements in the first place.
