The advice prior from grads was always to get a degree is something else to fall back on, but now you and the school got something out of it so it’s sooper important. It was always about money like nearly everything.
‘The degree didn’t bother me, it was just a means for me to get from Point A to where I am currently at and trying to get to get to quicker. I used my GI Bill and have a different skill set to fall back on.
‘Of course it’s about, however. The fact remains, students that attended a Part 141 university 9 times out of 10 have taken courses that takes a deeper dive into other aspects of flying outside of just flying a airplane. Now if the students don’t get much out of it because they are focus on checking a box and getting their degree and flight time. That’s on them. This is just my observation from learning and teaching both in a Part 61 and Part 141 environment.
