I majored in aviation because I enjoy it and figured it would be more fun studying about what I love than about something in which I have no interest. Plus I actually learned important things that I didn't learn in the flight training aspect of it. If I stop flying someday and want to change careers, the important fact is that I have a degree. Just make sure you enjoy your 4 years of college.
