Thanks for editing your post.

I appreciate your passion for aviation and for your school, but with no dog in your fight, perhaps I can see a bigger picture. Take a look at the table below, CS and Nursing are in demand. I reiterate my concern that those programs at your school are in trouble.

1. MBA Degree in Technology Management
2. PhD Degree in Computer Science
3. Bachelor’s Degree in Software Engineering
4. Master’s Degree in Education Administration
5. Master’s Degree in Geoscience
