Default Glass Cockpits and Regionals

Hey everybody, as a new poster on this forum who will most likely be moving on to the regionals in a year or two, i have a question about glass cockpits. I am going to school at Western Michigan University and really enjoying it. However, the primary aircraft that we use for training are Cirrus SR-20/22's with full glass cockpits. Western says that "advanced aircraft" training will make us more marketable??? Is this true? How many regionals and 135 operators actually operate aircraft with glass?? Not dishing on Western, i like the program, just looking for answers from people in the industry. Safe skies everybody.
