I disagree with that statement. If this kid gets a MBA from any major college, they will chose him over anyone with a Riddle degree. A business is a business, they all have balance sheets, employees, HR departments, etc. (regardless if it is an airline) If he is flying most of the time in college and happens to get a management degree by taking courses like turbo-prop theory, it won't hold as much weight as someone who actually concentrates on "real" business courses. Come On Man! Just cause you spent the money, don't send this kid down the wrong path too.


Now you're comparing apples to oranges. Of course and MBA from any school should give the person who has it a leg up.
