I agree totally with your second point. However I think (based on my CS experience) that most professors don't gear their curriculum towards startups b/c they themselves either dont understand or are not interested in startups. Many have not been outside the academic space enough to know what its about.. If they were into startups, they would probably be in the industry rather than teaching. Unless of course they generated wealth and then came back to teach, I've seen that before..
