Default College and the new enviornment

Hi guys,
I am a captain at a major airline now and haven’t had to try to navigate this new environment. My son is still in high school, earning his private.
Here’s the question:
I have two schools of thought going forward. 1. As soon as he graduates high school, go blow through ATP for 5 months (since he has a private already) and start working while doing one or two classes per semester online to work on his degree. 2. Go to Mercer county college aviation program for two years. Flight instruct after two years, work on the final classes he needs online to finish his 4 year degree.
what is everyone doing out there now? I don’t want him to miss this wave but I don’t want the degree to hold him up, though frankly, I’m not sure anyones going to need it. I know he needs hours.
Whats the opinion on order of operations right now?
thanks
