Only so many (very few relatively speaking) people can go to a given elite school. If it really matters who gets in, everyone is doomed. If it doesn't matter, then they can use any criteria they please. I happened to be looking at capsule bios of Kodak's C-level execs - I'm not sure how this compares to before their 2013 bankruptcy, but many of them seemed to have illustrious careers, and more than one went to SUNY Geneseo. Who knows, maybe one of them was motivated by being rejected by Harvard or something.
