Default Re: After Graduation?

The degree checks a square.

If aviation doesn't work out for a time, a degree in something other than aviation might help you succeed in something other than aviation. Also, a degree in another area of interest outside aviation can check the square while giving you experience in another area.

For example, I enjoy working with kids. A degree in education, child psyc, or counseling, would have filled the square while allowing me to pursue something much more meaningful than flying. Just a thought....

It's no big thing. A guideline rather than a rule. But it makes perfect sense to me.
