As a student interested in entrepreneurship, I get this feeling all the time. Teachers and profs will tell you if you have a good idea to pitch it at the University's Big Ideas/PowerPitch/NextBigThing program and see if you can get the approval of a board of investors mixed with business professors. Not a single teacher has ever straight up told me to go and start a business directly.

I think something you will see in a few years is kids coming out of college prepped for giving great pitches but having no idea what to actually do with the money. Entrepreneurship got lumped in with the business school at my college. All the student entrepreneurs do is learn about how to attract investors and give good pitches about untested ideas. The gist of entrepreneurship is projected as just presentation without any mention of creation.
