I always assumed that people with a university education are more likely to become right wing because they will earn more, get better jobs, get promotions, nice houses and expensive possessions and then strive to preserve that. See boomers pulling the ladder up after themselves.
Labour needed an uneducated and low earning workforce to get the voting numbers
This is why it was Labour that abolished the assisted places scheme, abolished the student grant and brought in tuition fees.
