What's really BS is the professors who don't teach jack shit during class and just expect students to do all the reading on their own time, then fill the actual class time with busy work. That was wayyy too common when I was in college.

The whole point of college is supposed to be to have highly qualified individuals giving you individualized instruction on advanced topics. That's why it costs literally tens of thousands of dollars. Yet more and more the professors are losers who couldn't hack it in their fields and the "lessons" are just there to fill time while you're expected to do most of the actual learning on your own.

I'd say about 10% of my industry knowledge when I graduated came from my classes, the other 90% was independent study or picking stuff up "on the job" at internships and jobs I worked outside of class. Basically I burned countless hours and tens of thousands of dollars just to get the piece of paper at the end. And talking to colleagues over the years, that's not at all an uncommon experience
