I understand that the industry has changed and everyone makes the case for not going to a university to study aviation because:

1) Its always nice to have a backup plan
2) Getting your ratings at local podunk airport gives you the same slip of paper

However, what ever happened to pilots being professionals? I studied aviation at a university and I KNOW I am a better pilot (in knowledge, skill, and experience) than I would have been just doing the bare minimum.

No one is saying that you can't double major!

What do you guys think?
