There are only about 12-15% of society that have university degrees today. About 22% or so actually enter post-secondary education programs to begin with.
I don't mean this as a shot at all, but my guess you're either in university, just out or work in a job that requires university education? I say that because I felt the same way (that basically everyone had a degree) before I started working in society and saw just how many people had never gone to anything past high school, etc. From my point of view you can definitely tell the difference, usually in their written work.
