Is it true that 90% of Harvard Business Grads are unemployed?

Hey. New kid here.

Recently I was in an argument with a OWS'ER. We were discussing business related things. When I told him that getting into HBS was my primary goal and that most of the graduates successfully work on Wall Street, he said the following:

"Clearly your knowledge of education is a failure. 90 percent of Harvard Business grads are UNEMPLOYED."

I feel... "demotivated"... I went online and researched and found nothing related to this. But since he's with the OWS group, of course I don't believe him.

Your thoughts? Is there really a downside in business right now, or is this guy just an idiot?

 

You want people to tell you if some anecdotal (clearly bullshit) comment by some moron is true when a simple google search could do that for you? Yea, Harvard is definitely on the horizon.

Maybe it's not that they're unemployed but unemployable because they end up going to start their own companies as entrepreneurs.
