So now private equity is the only career that matters because grads of certain schools have more of a relatively few jobs? Since they got blasted out of the CEO jobs by state school grads they need something to show their superiority. Anyway it's highly likely half of these PE firms will be going broke in the recession and the rest won't be doing as much and will not be hiring so good luck to all the fired Ibankers and new grads trying to get jobs with these firms.

I think NFL and NBA careers are far cooler than PE. There are far more Michigan and other state school grads playing in those leagues earning nice $$$. Plus they get way more hot chicks.
