This is due to the warped incentives in Higher Education. Universities get more tuition fees from accepting more students, and achieve better in national rankings by having higher graduation rates. Professors are stuck in the middle: asked to teach unprepared students, and forced to pass many who are not suitable. The people it hurts the most are the students who are actually capable, and put the time in to excel.
