Quote/saying: Old grass on new green? Old knowledge on new grass? I can't remember!

I dont even know if its an actual quote or just something a professor was making a statement about in class.

It was something like Old grass on new green? Old knowledge on new grass? I can't remember!

It was about the professors at ivy league schools take students under there wing. They would pass on knowledge and help shape the younger one while also supplying the younger one with political, business, etc contacts. I think he said this was linked back to the Greek societies where it was common also (with an extra pa verse side to it)

Is there an actual saying for this or not?
