Many professors imbue their students with the idea that, after graduation, they will automagically, immediately and irrevocably be part of the elite. This claim is utterly false, however it adds value to the professor's job and doesn't cost him anything. Some even use it in a "positive" way, to express "work hard, learn thoroughly, you will be an important part of society". Many graduates think they are entitled by being so, and as it is not the case they judge that others unjustly mistreat or even betray them.
