A startup I worked was started by HBS guys and hired professor from MIT as their first employee. They pretty much interviewed and hired folks from the top 5 math and computer science schools only. I looked up to these guys because of an inherent bias that, I never went to these schools and these guys must be gooood. After working with lots of them for a few years, if there is one thing I can tell you its this. HBS didn't teach the founders anything about startups or the business world. Ivy league schools didn't teach much about how to deliver a product to the guys. BTW, The worst hacker in the group was the professor :-)
