About 20% of JU’s Aviation Program students are female. “Right now, our students are flying airplanes just about every day,” said Capt. Matt Tuohy, director of the school of aviation and military sciences. “We took in the largest class ever this past, this semester, and all of them started flying their first semester.”Capt.
