I know this may appear to be a shallow question but, which organization, USAF or ASU, do you feel has the better organization, teaching methodology, etc?

Clearly organization XXX is superior. Why because my teacher is in it. My friends are in it. I am in it. What other answer can you expect? XXX really sucks, my teacher is horrible, the folks I train with are bozos, and I hate msyelf for being here?

Brad, please, what do you expect to hear? As Jun pointed out, the answer isn't even about organizations but rather individual teachers within those organizations. You need to get out there and try things out for yourself. Star with the big organization summer camps in which you can train with several big teachers at a time and many senior students of thiose teachers. Then narrow it down from there.
