HE in more recent times doesn't furnish students with a grasp of the reality they will be confronted with once they've graduated, especially if they're not a vocational degree (engineering, medicine etc). As universities have become more akin to businesses there's an emphasis in churning out any old degree just so long as the tuition fees are paid into the university coffers.
I don't think it's the education itself that changes someones beliefs. The combination of compartmentalization and flat-out-denial is enough to ignore what is written in textbooks. What chips away their worldview is the people they interact with. Since secular schools are filled with people with all kinds of beliefs, people are very likely to interact with others who hold a different view.
