JC Members. White Air in association with Neosho College in Chanute, KS is compiling a needs assesment for an aviation degree program. This program would be conducted by both Neosho College and White Air and lead to an Associates Degree in Applied Science and Pilot ratings from Private though Certified Flight Instructor.

If you would please take a moment and answer the following questions it would help us greatly in assessing the need for an Aviation degree program based in Southeast Kansas.

As a career oriented school we understand the value of a higher education degree. A degree is essential to future success and upward mobility within the aviation business. The following questions are to evaluate the interest in such a program that allows you to not only gain your pilot certifications but also a degree from an accredited college.

1. Do you agree that a program that allows a student to gain pilot certification along with an college degree is essential to that students success?

2. Would you consider Neosho College and White Air as a viable option when selecting a flight school for yourself, a family member or friend?

3. Do you feel that such a program would be beneficial to the local and regional communities of southeast Kansas?

You can email these respones to van@flywhiteair.com or respond on this forum.

White Air and Neosho College appreciate your participation is this survey. Your input will play a large part in determining the progress of this project.

Thank You
Van Ward
White Air

No, If I'm reading this correctly, that's pretty arrogant to assume those who train at FBO's and get degrees in non-aviation fields at the local state college are missing out on an "essential for success"

2. Would you consider Neosho College and White Air as a viable option when selecting a flight school for yourself, a family member or friend?

Yes to White Air, because I've looked at their rates and they're decent, and you're not a big evil "academy". Partnering with a local school is a good idea as well to encourage individual college pursuits.

The problem is that i consider AS degrees worthless untill you upgrade them into BS degrees. Why do it half-a$$ed. BS degrees are a requirement in todays world (I'm prepared to defend this statement)

3. Do you feel that such a program would be beneficial to the local and regional communities of southeast Kansas?

Sure, look at all the extra business mesa brings the "farmington commuity college" (or whatever it is on the ads) or other schools bring to "UVSC online"
 
Dude, stay away from the "aviation related degrees". Y'all have a good thing going, from what I've seen. Why push the aviation related crap. Set up a program with the college where they can earn some credits for flight courses directed towards general ed courses, or something, but it's not worth the aviation degree.

And, yes, I have one of dem dere degrees. It's not worth it.
