Why don't they give them the rating? I'm just saying that UND will try to tell students, that they'll have their IR after 222. That is absolutly not true.
Maybe I am one of the few who would actually use their instrument rating... So I care... I find punching holes in clouds and shooting approaches to be a hell of a lot more fun than flying around VFR all day. Joyrides with the family are fine every now and again, but I'd really like to zip up IFR to Seattle or Spokane.
And with my luck while at UND, it sure would be nice to have an Instrument rating if the weather when to crap on a 323 cross country.
