Hi again, Disgruntled.
Of course you are right.
The three propositions together form a deduction, even if the premises are inductive - the major being based on generalization from experience and the minor on experience.
But it is also somewhat correct to view the conclusion as induced, insofar as it is based on induced premises. All knowledge is essentially induced, deduction being one of the tools of induction. Maybe that is what the professor meant.
