It can be worse! I went back to school for some graduate work in the early 00s after having been in the industry for a handful of years. There was a required class that was one of those "here's what life is like in the real world instead of academia".

The instructor was a phd student who'd never been in industry.

He kept correcting me about industry practices, telling me that I had no idea what the real world was like.
