Corporate HR, and the liberal takeover of Universities in the 60s.
Corporate HR (and FedGov) placed an outsized value on having a 4 year degree, even in circumstances where it wasn't necessary or productive. This helped create a narrative that Johnny wasn't going to amount to anything in life without a 4 year degree. Thankfully, this is starting to shift, at least in tech.
If you got a history degree from U of Illinois in 1955, you could probably read and write pretty well. The focus on social justice/protests in the 60s took a liberal environment and dumped rocket fuel on it.
