I recall during undergrad that the stated goal of the professors was to 'unteach' us everything we learned in high school, and twenty years later I was thankfully finally able to unlearn everything I learned in undergrad. People that stay in a cult are unlikely to be fully honest with themselves and others about its shortcomings.

Graduate school was a non-issue as I went through that as a means to an end and virtually all of the professors weren't wrapped up in academia.
