I agree with you, the excuse that having a roommate helps you pass ground school is just Kool Aid B.S. The company has double occupancy rooms for new hires for one reason only, to save $$$.
With that being said, It's pretty common at regionals to share a room. Colgan is not the only one who does this, but there are some that don't. I personally don't like sharing a room. I'm lucky I had a good roommate but wouldn't want to do it again.
As far as having a issue with your roommate, Colgan will help solve that problem. In my class some guys got their own rooms because one of them snored pretty loudly.
