Entitlement mentality instilled in them by their never-had-a-real-job-or-failed-at-it professors.

That is only 1/2 the problem.

Too many parents send their little darlings off to the University having never worked at a real job in their entire lives.

To be offered a decent position a rational employer wants to see a work history to go witb the academics. Lets be honest here: not getting out in the workplace to develope a work ethic before age 21 is every bit as much a recipe for mediocrity as not learning a language before age 21 or not learning a competative sport before age 21.

Junior comes out with a newly minted sheepskin, but until we see if his abilities to show up on time and accomplish an assigned task and take initiative matches whatever GPA he had he isn’t worth much.
