Dunno, isn't this just a reflection of how out of touch a lot of the course material is...followed up by that the world they go into is "do what the authority figures tell you?".
I'd say maybe 80% of what I learned in high school was a waste.
And while there's some ominus things to that last one, we're just not breaking new ground in new fields any more. In a good job someone else figured out how to do things. In a shitty job someone shows up every month/week/meeting telling you to do things in a new stupid different way and you're expected to go with it if you don't you won't have a job.
There's some element here of professors living in their ivory tour and being completely out of touch.
