I'll be damned:

Sully is a graduate of the U.S. Air Force Academy (B.S.), Purdue University (M.S.) and the University of Northern Colorado (M.A.).

Looks like the USAF and Purdue were just his preparation for his real education.

Just another proof UNC provides the best public education in the state! Way to go Sully!

That being said, maybe, just maybe, the school he attended in Colorado Springs helped him to land the plane a little more than his school in Greeley.

Sure, but his training in public adminstration helped I'm sure!
