Default Starting from scratch, need advice.

I am a senior in college and am seriously considering aviation as a career. If I went down this path, I would be starting from the bottom,(private licence) and working my way up. I am fortunate enough to have the financial means to go through with this with little to do debt accumulating. I've read a good bit about airline schools vs. FBO, but still have a few questions.

1) Is going to you local flight school (Birmingham) for training as efficient as going to a career school?

2) once I obtain my commercial licence, is there other options to gain hours for the major airlines besides regionals?

3) For those who do fly for the regionals, are you obligated to live in a domicile city, or can you commute into wherever the hub may be?

any other thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated. thanks
