[edit] Education

Here is a link to a JetBlue page that verifies Neeleman attended University of Utah. http://investor.jetblue.com/ireye/ir_site.zhtml?ticker=jblu&script=120&layout=-6&item_id=76502Risker 03:50, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

That link shows "Page cannot be found" in my browser. As I said, Thomas Friedman states in his book "The world is flat", based on an interview with Neeleman, on page 446, 2nd paragraph: "He [Neeleman] never went to college, but he has started two successful airlines..." On the other hand, I found this page as part of the UofU Alumni website: [1], where Neeleman is awarded the "Distinguished Alumni Award".

The question is what source to believe...

[edit] Clarification?

In this interview, Neeleman says he started at University of Utah for three years, but dropped out.

just to register, i´d made some changes in the part talking about brazilian air company, ´coz the text was a little confused, and there were an information not too much precise; there said that the company was provisoly name Air Brazil, but i´d never heard about that name before; the press used to say (and the website for the poll to choose the name) a nova companhia aérea brasileira (the new brazilian air company). I hope my grammar is correct in the text, any problems please someon fix it!! Ninaguitarhero (talk) 21:19, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
