I am in college at The University of Oklahoma. For the longest time I thought I wanted to be an ATC. Here recently my thoughts have shifted to more a professional pilot as I have started flight school at the university. I still have ATC chosen as my minor.

I was wondering though what would u say the advantages are of being an ATC over a pilot? What's a typical ATC life like? Can I even get up into towers anymore to visit?

Thanks
