It was explained to me once that it wasn't Harvard Business School that was responsible for the decline of capitalism, but Wharton. That the two represented two very different approaches to people. Harvard supposedly taught to value employees and customers as people, and to strive for social good as a primary goal. Wharton supposedly taught to treat employees and customers as renewable resources, dehumanizing them, and to strive for profits and shareholder value as the only goals. The source was biased to old-school ivy league, but someone I trust. I've never attended either school.
