Comment on Are universities failing entrepreneurs?

Those who can do, those who can't, teach. Why would you expect to find anyone who could teach entrepreneurial skills in a college? With the exception of a few institutions that hire actual entrepreneurs (eg, Steve Blank) most professors simply don't have the skills or experience.

Check the resumes of the professors at your local (or favorite) institutions. How many of them (if any) have experience as a founder, let alone just operational experience in a startup?
