LOL. When I attended orientation, the head of the AS department (I can't remember his name.....Dan Carroll, I think got up to the podium, and opened with the statement "Did you know that a 747 international captain for United Airlines makes over 300 thousand dollars a year? Welcome to Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University's orientation day. You're making an investment in your future here at the Harvard of the Skies. I'm Dan Caroll, head of the Air Science Department......."

Speaking as a student looking at colleges, that's just plain disgusting.

You'll be hard pressed to find a college that doesn't do that. Good luck!

Don't bother. Really. Believe me when I say this. Don't even pencil it in onto your schedule. It sucks major buttcrack and is a waste of time. This is true for any university but for Riddle it's a requirement....don't go, you won't respect yourself afterwards.

Agreed. I didn't go to mine...and look how I turned out.

Whatever opportunity comes upon you to network and make friends in your field, even though you're just starting out in college - do it!
Yow, I can't believe Carroll said that. I wonder if I'll hear anything better.
